It's very good to read the words 'I'm new to VMS'.
Hopefully you enjoy the ride!

Thank you!
I am new to VMS so some of its useful facilities (as HELP /MESSAGE) not yet
known to me.

Subject: Re: [HECnet] Linker warnings
Can anyone bring some light on these linker warnings:
%LINK-W-TRUNC, truncation error in psect CODE offset %X0000046C
in module XXX file YYY
-LINK-W-TRUNCDAT, computed value is %X00000080
value written is %XFFFFFF80 at location %X0000A2B8
Assuming this is VMS, $ HELP /MESSAGE says:
TRUNCDAT, computed value is 'value1'
value written is 'value2' at location 'address'
Facility: LINK, Linker Utility
Explanation: Usually, this error occurs when a reference using byte or
word PC-relative displacement is made to a target requiring
longword relative displacement. 'Value1' is the value the
linker needed to store; 'value2' is the value the linker is
able to store (a truncated version).
User Action: Correct the reference to use longword relative addressing
mode.
For something more specific, it would help to know more background.
Regards,
Peter Coghlan.

Hi all!
Can anyone bring some light on these linker warnings:

-LINK-W-TRUNCDAT, computed value is %X00000080

Thanks.
He is on this mailinglist...

This is technically true, but it's really not very useful to have a
network with duplicate node names. After all, if I post a message
saying "phone me on ABC::" or "copy these files from XYZ::" and half
the users have a different ABC or XYZ, then people are not going to be
happy.
Yeah. That is very true. However, you could just have a subset that is
"common", and then have your own names for local machines that noone
else cares about, and name conflict between such machines wouldn't be an
issue.
But that is up to people to decide how they want it. I like it better to
have a global name space, and all my machines pick the nodename database
from MIM so I have them as much in synch as possible. I occasionally
also ping people when I notice nodes for which I have no name, but from
which communication have been visible.
Sure, it may be that the Italian guys never access our nodes and
vice versa, but if that's true then what's the point in integrating?
Yup.
P.S. Does anybody have a list of the nodes on the Italian network?
I can probably get a list... But how about exploring if they'd be
interested in hooking up first maybe?

Speaking of Datatrieve - is there a hobbyist license for this?
