I don't think they are, but Peter Lothberg should have all the details,
since he already have an SC40 on HECnet...
The SCSI drive that is used for boot is formatted with 2304 byte
sectors, and has a T20 file system. The "FE are" is not used.

I think that is if it supports the CRC extension to DAP. It should either stand for DAP CRC, or Data Check. Pick one. :-)
And I guess RSTS/E do not support that.
Correct. There is a symbol for that flag in the code, but nothing references it.

And I guess RSTS/E do not support that. I'm surprised TOPS-10 do, but it might be that the TOPS-10 DAP just answers with such an old format that RSX don't properly understand it, considering the odd information in the other fields.

Just for the lulz, I made a captive account on CHIMPY:: called SLRFIND that uses Lynx to connect to the file search engine.
It works quite well actually.

There's no alternative IMO. Unless a set file/enter is possible across a volumeset .
Actually I hope it doesn't since it's not a nice solution.

Yeah logical name list seem like a pain but they're a good thing once you get your head round them.
Well I have the files on another server so I don't really care about linking them into the Apache directory at this point.
On that note, you can now find most of www.decuslib.com in SOLAR::DKA100:[DECUSLIB]
It's still unzipping the files. For a mirror of the the originals, check out http://solar.sampsa.com/files/

You need to look into SET FILE/SYMLINK. I have to run out now. Later, if
nothing comes up, I'll put an example together for you.
HELP SET FILE/SYMLINK is of no use - how do I make a symbolic link of a directory, anybody?

Ooops MacOS mail app is acting weird again. Somehow it has gone into a time warp and it is sending again old messages. Please disregard.

I've been fixing some DECnet code in RSX, and I'm now looking for systems to check against.
What I'm testing is NFT/DAP access, and systems I'd like to test against is Ultrix-32, OSF-1, TOPS-20, RT-11, RSTS/E. Essentially anything not VMS or RSX. :-)
Do anyone have any such systems online on HECnet at the moment, which I can have file access to?
BITXT0: TOPS-20, USER=GUEST, PASSWORD=GUEST
BITXOT: RSTS/E, ACCOUNT=201,2, PASSWORD=GUESTGUEST
Additionally:
BITXT1: TOPS-10, USER=GUEST, PASSWORD=GUEST
I can put up a Ultrix-32 system if there is no other one available.
By the way, I didn't know there was DECNET for RT-11...

Tried every variation of SET FILE/SYMLINK I could think of, nothing worked.

I just added a disk to solar, DKA100: and have created a directory =
called DKA100:[DECUSLIB] on it.
I want to link it into DKA0:[SYS0.DECNET] as =
DKA0:[SYS0.DECNET.DECUSLIB].
However:
$ SET FILE/ENTER=3DDKA0:[SYS0.DECNET]DECUSLIB.DIR;1 =
DKA100:[000000]DECUSLIB.DIR;1
%SET-E-ENTERR, error entering DKA100:[000000]DECUSLIB.DIR;1 as =

-RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for =

Here's what's in DKA100:
$ dir dka100:[000000]

VOLSET.SYS;1 0KB 7-FEB-2015 00:26:49.44
Total of 11 files, 7.03MB
This is explained in the OpenVMS File System Internal book. The files MUST
be on the same volume for the /ENTER to work. The actual file has a header
which resides in INDEXF.SYS in the MFD of that volume. A header is located
using the file ID. The file ID is stored in the <direcotry].DIR. When you
issue /ENTER, an entry, using the name you've specified, is place into the
directory specified; however, its file ID is set to the file you wish to be
linked with. This is why it cannot span volumes.
On *NIX I'd use a symbolic link - what's the VMS solution?
