Thanks, that worked.

In the future, be *SPECIFIC* about both the source and alias when using the
$ SET FILE/ENTER command.

The source is DKA0:[SYS0.DECNET] which I would like to appear as =

OK... You said "the source" is DKA0:[SYS0.DECNET]
Try:
$ SET FILE/ENTER=DKA0:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.APACHE.HTDOCS]DECNET.DIR;1 DKA0:[SYS0]DECNET.DIR;1

How do I make a link from SYS$SPECIFIC:[DECNET} to [.DECNET}?
I don't know enough details on exactly what you are doing to give a full
answer, but I do know this much:
Directories *must* have version ;1.
It is absolutely not cool to try and have one with version ;2
I would guess from the above that there already exists a
SYS$SPECIFIC:[DECNET]

That ;2 was because his command made file specification default assumptions.

The problem is that I don't know what SYS$SPECIFIC nor what APACHE$ROOT are!
There's a little DCL command called '$ SHOW LOGICAL' which would help here.
And, FWIW, all of this has been well explained in the "OpenVMS File System
Internals" book.
