I guess you're talking about ftp.update.uu.se
I tried what I thought it was, namely sticking the phrase ftp infront
of the domain name for the list after the period of course. The client
thought that's what it was and promptly hung whilst trying to resolve
the domain name appropriately. This happened on two different ones.
Sounds weird...

Hello!
Sometimes I actually do forget that the US, and NYC isn't the center
of the world, and everything starts and ends here, like the way we
work out the time of day....
I suspect that I caught the server during its possibly nonscheduled down time.
Now everything is working.

I just tried connecting to ftp.update.uu.se and it works from here.

That server went down yesterday sometime during the night/morning and
was rebooted around lunchtime. Perhaps you tried during that time span.
Let me know if you have more problems.
Cheers,
Pontus.

Hi,
sorry for the long delay. My work disturbes occasionally my hobbies. :)
Now the TSM kits (Alpha and VAX) are extracted from the VMS Freeware V5.0.
You can fetch them from my Alpha:
wega.dechobbyist.net
using anonymous ftp.

If you could extract it, I would be very grateful, I'm kinda low on space on CHIMPY at the moment.
Can't wait to get to my new place, will be able to bring both the Alphaserver 4100 and rx2600 online.

Yes, I know, it is the whole disk image.
If you aren't in a hurry, I could extract the TSM stuff from my disk and put it on my Alpha for download.

The command "language" is almost same on all DECservers. The newer ones have TCP/IP related commands, which aren't found on older ones.
The help is quite good indeed.
If you are interested, the TSM (Terminal Server Manager) software (for VMS) is freeware. You can use it to configure all your DECservers and retain their configurations on a centralized server.

It's very similar to a DECserver 100. Most of the differences are to do
with modem control.
I seem to remember it has quite good help too.

And yes, the help system actually holds everything you need
to know.
The trickiest thing is getting the firmware to load when it MOP boots. Once you're past that it's easy enough to configure ports and if I remember correctly the serial lines can autoconfigure anyway which will get you into the help system.
If you have RSX, it just serves the firmware, if you have it, and MOP enabled. Easier than saying "hello".
There seemed to be plenty of copies of the firmware image floating around on the web a couple of years back.
I have it on MIM. Just let me know if you need it.
