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.

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.

Should do. I never got around to building it and lost the files in an OS wipe.

It should run fine. There is even a rtVAX1000 simulator (this was the MicroVAX II CPU with a less than full memory management implementation).

I've got a zoo extractor.

Thanks. In the meantime, I tracked one down on the net, by Martin Schoenert ( public domain ) called unzoo.c. Compiled and ran with no trouble at all.
