By the way, as an example, have a look at CHIMPY::INFO.TXT.
This is also a great place to put stuff like "Private system, no guest login available. Please don't attempt to connect" etc

Guys,
I just had an idea for making nodes on the network more accessible:
Drop a file called INFO.TXT into the default account FAL directory if you have one enabled. This file can give a brief description of the system and guest logins etc.
I've even knocked out a quick CGI script for viewing this info online.

Tried that too, still can't see them listed. I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious - I'm pretty sure that the CGI params are passed as symbols, not logicals...

Hello,
Would someone be able to host some files for me on a drive reachable

on-topic! I can let you know when they're pulled and you can then delete
them - it's a one off request.
The files can be pulled via ftp from the following location:

I could do it, but I cannot reach the ftp server. Do you have an IP address to it?

So far so good, but couldn't see any files in the directory or download any files. Maybe the access list is too restrictive?
Kari
Huh? Maybe I'm thinking wrong. Hmm, by the way, try what someone else suggested (can't remember who), and check your logicals instead. I would expect them to live there...

Sorry about the less-than-entirely-relevant question, feel free to ignore, but I am confused, yet again.
I'm trying to write a quick script to search a file and output the results, in HTML, over HTTP, so I've decided to use a small DCL script with the CSWS web server on OpenVMS 8.3. I can't figure out where CSWS sticks the CGI parameters however, the book says they're meant to be defined as symbols, but this is what my script sees:
SHOW SYMBOL/LOCAL *
P1 = ""
P2 = ""
P3 = ""
P4 = ""
P5 = ""
P6 = ""
P7 = ""
P8 = ""
SHOW SYMBOL/GLOBAL *
$FACILITY == "%X00000001"

Where did QUERYSTRING etc go?
Here's the script ( http://rhesus.sampsa.com/cgi-bin/fidonodes/findnode.com?q=foo ) :
$ write sys$output "content-type: text/html"
$ write sys$output ""
$ write sys$output "<html><hr /><pre>"

Ok, that explain it :)
Does anybody happen to know why CSWS doesn't pass QUERY_STRING_UNESCAPED, but it does QUERY_STRING? Is there some Apache option I need to set?
CSWS = I64VMS CSWS V2.1-1 on VMS V8.3-1H1 / Itanium.

Nothing wrong with *, just that you won't get other tables like that.
There are some tables that are shown by default, if you don't specify otherwise. Also, by default, all tables are searched when you try to translate a symbol, and they are searched in a specific order, so that you can "overwrite" system values with your own versions without affecting other users. And this is done in several levels, so that you have a login logical table, and a process logical table, and a group logical table, and so on...
When you write programs, you can specify that you don't want to search certain tables as well.
So, for your scripts, you weren't examining the right tables, but when you wanted translations done, the symbols were found somewhere anyway, even if you didn't examine those tables explicitly. :-)
