The generic idea sounds good, but maybe the base file format should have more info/structure than the simple VMS help input form. Given a simple formatting structure, emitting the VMS help and the other formats should be readily achieved. I'm looking at reworking the internal help structure of simh with the goal of potentially emitting several different formats. - Mark

HECnet .HLP library for OpenVMS

by sampsa＠mac.com

Since I have some spare time on my hands, I've decided to create a .HLP file that describes service / nodes on HECnet. If you want an entry, basically just email me some text to sampsa at mac.com and I'll compile a HECNET help library out of the entries. So if you're offering some cool service, guest accounts, allow registration of user accounts, are running on unusual hardware (I know there's a couple of TOPS-20 systems out there, I really want to learn that OS) then let me know. I'll release a new .HLP file (over both FAL and HTTP) along with instructions on how to import it into your system's HELP library whenever there's new material or material is changed / removed.. See the text below for an example, but please start your numbering at heading level 2: --- SNIP (lines beginning with a number are like <h#> tags in HTML) ------ 1 HILANT # # # # ## # # ##### # # # # # # ## # # ###### # # # # # # # # # # # # ###### # # # # # # # # # # # ## # # # # ###### # # # # # Welcome to the HILANT VAX Cluster, part of the SAMPSACOM, .FI section. 2 Accounts No guest accounts at the moment, but if you log in as ACCTREQ you can apply for a full one. For the more active accounts you can interact with, look in Active Accounts here or KAHUNA$:[INFO]ACCOUNTS.TXT 3 Active Accounts List of quite active accounts on HILANT:: ----------------------------------------- SAMPSA Sampsa Laine, owner, admin DAVIDSON Steve Davidson, co-conspirator, admin 2 Mail Mail can be sent to HECnet users directly using the <NODE>::<USER> syntax I'm sure you are all familiar with. To send mail to the internet, route it via the CHIMPYMAIL gateway, using this syntax: CHIMPY::smtp%"joe.user at example.com" Please note that some providers (notably Apple and Hotmail/Windows Live) do not accept this as a valid address. Gmail does however. Your inbound address is: KUHAVX::<username>@chimpymail.com For information on how to forward your mail, see the Forwarding subsection. See KAHUNA$:[INFO]ACCOUNTS.TXT for the most active accounts, usually admins who can help you. --- SNIP ---

Write it using RUNOFF (.RNH) or DOCUMENT and convert that into the .HLP.

Running the RSX-11 MAIL-11 client on VAX VMS with the RSX emulation installed

by sampsa＠mac.com

Guys, Is it possible to run the RSX-11 MAIL client on a VAX that has the RSX compatibility module installed? Will it work alongside the normal VMS MAIL client? I'm asking because frankly the mail client on MIM is much nicer to use than the standard VMS mail client.. Sampsa

Installing DECnet netkit to RSX-11M Plus 4.6

by md.benson＠gmail.com

I have built and SYSGEN'd a fresh system in a SimH instance of RSX-11M Plus 4.6 and am trying to install DECnet and NETGEN it. I am struggling with the tape image I have though. I have the 'decnet11mp46-netkit.tap' image from bitsavers. I have mounted it but when I try to copy the PREGEN.CMD file (following Matt Burke's guide here http://9track.net/pdp11/decnet4_netgen) it says it's not there. I am unfortunately not well enough voiced in RSX-11M to probe further from here to find out what's going on. Anyone got any clues or ideas? -- Mark @ DECtec.info twitter.com/DECtecInfo

Announcing TCP/IP for RSX-11M-PLUS

by bqt＠softjar.se

I'm happy to announce a new release of TCP/IP for RSX-11M-PLUS. Since I'm broadening the scope of the announcement slightly, a more complete list of features is included, and not just what changed since last. For anyone who is currently running TCP/IP for RSX, I strongly encourage you to update to this latest version. Several improvements have gone in in the last couple of weeks. Most important change is that there now is telnet support, both client and server side. The TCP/IP for RSX that I've written is sometimes referred to as BQTCP/IP, just to make clear that it is a different product than Process Software's TCPWARE, or JSA's TCP/IP. BQTCP/IP is a rather feature rich TCP/IP implementation, which also comes with libraries for various high level languages. The API is not compatible, even at the source level, with Unix, but on the other hand, if people write some code, they will see that it is a very easy API to work with. The reasons for the incompatibilities are several, including both resource concerns and differences between how RSX works and Unix like operating systems. BQTCP/IP has tried to comply with all relevant RFCs, but I'm sure there are corners where it does not do things right. It also does not demand much resources. It do require RSX-11M-PLUS with split I/D space, and it has only been tested properly on RSX-11M-PLUS V4.6. It should work on any version 4 release of RSX-11M-PLUS, but there might be a couple of tweaks or fixes needed. BQTCP/IP is distributed in binary form, so very little compilation is required to get it up and running. However, pretty much all utilities do come with sources. The actual TCP/IP stack sources are not included. I do not have a good setup for distributing them in a sane way, and it has had a low priority on my list of things to do. But I do not mind distributing the sources as a general principle. All that said, BQTCP/IP current supports the following protocols: o Ethernet and loopback interfaces. o ARP. BQTCP/IP can use Ethernet in co-existance with DECnet, or standalone using the provided Unibus ethernet device driver. o IP. The largest IP packets supported are approximately 8KB. o ICMP. o UDP. The largest UDP packets supported are approximately 8KB. o TCP. The window is approximately 8KB in size, and TCP do manage out of order packets in an efficient way. BQTCP/IP supports the following applications: o DHCP. DHCP can be used to configure interface addresses, network masks, default gateways, DNS servers and NTP servers dynamically. o NTP. NTP can be used to set the local time. o TELNET. The TELNET server hooks in to the standard TT: terminal driver, and the number of terminals to create is configurable. The TELNET client can be used to connect to other systems. o FTP. The FTP server can serve all kind of files to other RSX systems, and can serve text and binary files to any system. The FTP client can retrieve RSX format files from RSX servers, and text, binary and block format files from any system. o TFTP. The TFTP server and client can be used for simpler file transfer operations. o RWHOD. RWHOD is a program that reports current users and uptime from RSX, for other systems to collect. o IRC. IRC is a program to communicate with other users around the world. o IRCBOT. IRCBOT is a small example robot program connecting to IRC and performing a service for IRC users. o PCL. PCL is a protocol for printing, used by HP (and other) printers over a network. The PCL implementation in BQTCP/IP appears as a print symbiont, which you can create a printer queue for. o WWW. WWW (or World Wide Web) is a service that can present hypertext information to clients. The WWW server in BQTCP/IP also supports CGI, which makes it possible to create dynamic content. o DNS. BQTCP/IP have DNS implemented as an ACP, that anyone can query to get translations between IP addresses and domain names. It also supports different users using different name servers, or private translations. o SINK. A standard TCP service. o ECHO. A standard TCP service. o DAYTIME. A standard TCP service. o QUOTD. A standard TCP service. o IDENTD. A standard TCP service. BQTCP/IP also have automatic IP spoof detection and prevention. Additional tools are IFCONFIG, PING, TRACEROUTE, NETSTAT as well as two new pages for RMD. High level language libraries exists for BASIC+2, PDP-11 C and FORTRAN-77. I'm sure I have forgotten a thing or three, but that's a fairly comprehensive list. The documentation is a weak point, but there is hopefully enough documentation to get people running, and I am happy to answer any questions, or give support if needed. BQTCP/IP is already running on the internet, and have been for a while. People who are curious to check it out can ether look at http://madame.update.uu.se/, or telnet to telnet://madame.update.uu.se and login as user GUEST with password GUEST, or use ftp against ftp://madame.update.uu.se. Anonymous ftp account exist. As usual, the distribution is available from: ftp://madame.update.uu.se/bqtcp.dsk ftp://madame.update.uu.se/bqtcp.tap ftp://ftp.update.uu.se/pub/pdp11/rsx/tcpip/tcpip.dsk The .tap file is an RSX virtual tape. It is only possible to download and use if you are using FTP from anther RSX system and fetch the file. The .dsk files are virtual RL02 images that are useful both from within RSX as well as through emulators. The documentation is also available through ftp on Madame, or also at http://madame.update.uu.se/tcpipdoc Johnny

Hi, I fired my VAXstation 4000 Model 60 up after a while dormant and it keeps asking me for a language in the SRM prompt after the self-test. I know it asked for it previously but I don't remember it needing it more than once, particularly between power switch cycles.

Hi...

by md.benson＠gmail.com

Well, after a long absence due to life being what life is sometimes, I'm now in my own apartment with my own Broadband line. Alas I'm still on a dynamic IP. I wondered if anyone had made any progress with allowing us wandering souls to connect to HECnet. I aim to renew my VMS Hobbyist licenses (hopefully that still works? Did it move to VMSsoftware or is HP still doing it?) and get my VAXstation up and running as well as a couple of RPi's running an older VAX sim with VMS and PDP-11 sim RSX-11M Plus. I may also dabble in using Tru64 on my Alpha, if I can dig out some bigger disks for it. Hoping I can get back into DEC as it's about the only esoteric hardware I have left these days!

TOPS-20 / Decnet

by jferraro＠gmail.com

A couple of years ago, there was at least one discussion wherein several of us attempted to get working TOPS-20 systems up on HECnet. At the time, if I recall, there seemed to be an issue with the version of DECnet available. I eventually grabbed Panda and used it to build "joshua", but I'm curious if anyone has a non-panda TOPS20 up on the [HEC] net. Joe

Dynammic IP for LEGATO?

by bob＠jfcl.com

I'm going to need to change my ISP in a month or two and a static IP is going to add about $30-$35/month to the cost. I've decided that dDNS will suffice for all the stuff I'm currently doing and it's not really worth it, except maybe Multinet DECnet links to LEGATO. I also looked into using a VPN provider to establish a static IP gateway that's automatically routed to my server, but that costs almost as much and is much more hassle to maintain. I'm thinking about just living without static IPs anymore. There's about half a dozen sites currently connected to LEGATO - is anybody going to have a problem if the IP becomes dynamic at some point? As with most dynamic IP situations, I don't expect that the IP address will actually change very often (maybe once every few months), but the possibility exists that it will. Bob

RT-11 on a PDP-11/10

by bqt＠softjar.se

Hi all. Update have an 11/10, that was recently powered on again for the first time in I don't know when. After some fiddling with the RX01 disks, we put an RL11 and an RL02 on it. Lots of space, I know. :-) Also, we have RT-11 running on it. And for fun, we wanted to run the original Tetris. But here is the catch - Tetris is using some instructions that the 11/10 don't have. (I would guess EIS stuff.) Do anyone know if there is some software emulation of these instructions that can be added to RT-11 in order to be able to run such programs? RT-11 V5.5 by the way, if anyone wants to know. And no, I am not sitting by the machine, or trying to play with it personally. It's other people at Update. But an 11/10 is cute. And we did boot the RL02 on Magica (11/70) to check that there is nothing wrong with the binary, and it runs fine on that large machine.

VMS question

by bqt＠softjar.se

I've way rusty on VMS, so I figured someone here can probably give me an answer way faster than I can figure it out myself. I brought SIGGE:: online two days ago. (VAX 7000-720). Started YCPIP services as well. Now the disk is full. I'm guessing some logging somewhere, as people are crazy about probing and poking. TELNET stopped working, but I can log in fine from DECnet or LAT. Can anyone tell me where logs go, and how to clean it up so I free some disk. Also, are there some known issue with the telnet server? If I telnet to the machine, it's just constantly spewing out one character. Probably 0xff.

Anyone heard from .... ?

Hey all: Has anyone heard from Sampsa (Laine) lately? All of my connections to him are "down" and after a good amount of time I sent him an email, and received no response, but didn't receive a bounce. Hopefully it isn't too bad a form to post this to the HECNet list, but I figured most folks here would be the likely candidates to have heard from him. Fred
