And I may've just figured out why DECnet wasn't working, I'm going to go read the documentation and post back. Okay, I've maybe made progress. Alpha connecting to the RSTS/E system: $ set host 33.301 %SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ, network object is unknown at remote node And on 33.301: Event type 34.1, Object spawn failure Occurred 15-Oct-25 13:11:52.6 on node 33.301 (GEWT1) Reason: Unknown Object identification Source node = 33.302 Source process = 0 556 0 SYSTEM Destination process = 42 (I have no idea what's with the 15-OCT-25, the date is set correctly on the system ) Attempting to reach 33.302 from 33.301: $ set host 33.302 Connection Established to VAX/VMS Node 33.302 ?Unsupported Virtual Terminal Protocol. And it just times out when the VAX tries to contact the RSTS/E system/RSTS/E system tries to contact the VAX. VAX and ALPHA can reach each other and the Alpha can reach HECnet via the VAX Any ideas? RSTS does not support the CTERM protocol. It needs the old RTERM. I'm not sure if VMS Alpha supports it. VMS VAX 7.3 does: $ set host/app=rterm bitxot %REM-I-CONNECTION, connection made using RTERM protocol %REM-I-REMOTE, connection established to remote node BITXOT:: RSTS V10.1-L 28-Oct-12 19:37 User: 200,1 Password: Last interactive login on 28-Oct-12, 19:36 at KB37: Last non-interactive login on 06-Jun-12, 00:59 Tried that.

You did a CLEAN install on a blank destination disk? From the tape image that I gave you? I just did it that way.. Well it wasn't blank, but I did choose "erase", so maybe that was my mistake. Regardless, I know what to do next time I need to install RSTS/E just need to fix the DECnet issues. How might I go about adding "users" in RSTS/E? $ CREATE/ACCOUNT (see "help create /account") Note: An "account" under RSTS/E can mean a "user account" that gets logged into, or just a "directory". That can be confusing. Just bear that in mind as you read. Okay, thanks! -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
