Suggestion for hosts with FAL default account enabled.

Thanks for the positive feedback! The obvious thing to add is a HECNETINFO command, that displays this file on a given host - we want this information to be easily accessible from the DCL side as well rather than just the Web, I think.

Very nice! Definitely saving this one in my hecnet folder for future use. :) I also have Zane's URL saved as well. I put an info.txt file in the decnet default directory on MISER earlier today. Cheers, Fred ---- Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.

I made a stupid little CGI script that shows the known nodes database and also lets the user request information about a host, and sends out the INFO.TXT file of that host if found. http://rhesus.sampsa.com/cgi-bin/hecnetinfo/hecnetinfo.com Sampsa On 14 Oct 2009, at 19:02, Zane H.

I can get them up onto a hecnet accessible drive, or an ftp site - let me know which you'd prefer. It'd have to be ftp for now. I need to get my new Linux box up and running before I can get hooked-up to Hecnet. Cheers, Andrew -- Andrew Back a at smokebelch.org

Of course, and this list is great - but for random browsing of the network, the info.txt is a nice feature I think, no?

Mark, Have a look on RHESUS::, in the MEDIALIB dir there's a whole SPL, I think MAILBUS might be there, in fact: RHESUS::DKA0:[SYS0.FAL$SERVER.MEDIALIB.AXP.SPL.DISK4.MTA030] might be just the thing you're looking for.
