Hello!
Thought I'd insert a thought here: Friday I applied for a hobbyist
license for the release of VMS for the Alpha that I now have here. The
site responded that they've got my request, and that it would be sent
to me RSN.
The last time I tried doing that it was for the VAX, and it came back
that day. I wonder what's going on behind that site this time.
And his spam features do not like the people who try to contact the

Hello,
Sometimes there seem to be issues with the licensing system at Montagar. The
guy behind the system is AFAIK doing the hobbyist maintenance in his spare
time.
I have also had to wait a couple of times for my licenses. You can send him
mail or just try the license fetching again.

Hello!
This is strange.... After the usual issues with getting the proper
authentication to enable logging into the User Group site for the User
Group number, I went ahead and told the hobbyist thing the number.
And this time after filling in the forms the data came back via return
e-mail. The first time, and even this time the site for the hobbyist
license simply said: "
Hobbyist Licensing
Your license request has been accepted. You will receive your license
via E-mail at hansolofalcon at att.net once processing has been
completed. Thanks!"
The first time, was shortly after the discussions regarding the Alpha
emulator. Nothing happened.... Now it did. It came back via return
e-mail within minutes.

Hello,
Your membership number and the other details asked on the license request form should be enough to get your licenses.
I have never (in over 10 years) had to log in anyplace to get my licenses.

I think the licensing mechanism relies on external links that aren't always that reliable. Post a message on openvmshobbyist.org asking about the state if you have no luck.

Hello!
Actually I was not aware of that fact. For example I am aware that
someone does have 51 assigned to them, at one point.

Gregg,
I have sent you the HECnet area list.
If someone is on HECnet, or just logged into Mim (telnet to
Mim.Update.UU.SE, and login with guest/guest), you can check areas and
nodenames at:
MIM::US:[DECNET]DECNET.TXT (areas)
MIM::US:[DECNET]NODENAMES.ALL (nodenames)
And as others mentioned, areas only go from 1 to 63, while node numbers
within one area go from 1 to 1023.
And there is no special algorithm for assigning area numbers. If you
think you want one, and it's free, just let me know.
Johnny

Hello!
I'm in the processof obtaining a system with the mentality who could
be able to run this Free AXP emulator. So far I've got it installed on
this laptop.
As far as the OS goes, it will be VMS for the AXP platform. I've got
it tagged as such.
Next question, how are we numbering areas, this season? For example, I
am interested in 156. The chosen Name would then announced shortly
after all is well with regards to the installation arrangements. The
bridging program would be running on my Linux box, with the host for
the Free AXP emulator sending its data thatway.
Incidentally Sampsa pat yourself on the back, and enjoy an extra
something to drink, because you were the inspiration this week for
that idea. (I don't know if the system arrives this week or next.
There are some idiotic legal issues involved.)
