While rebuilding my collection of PDF files from BitSaver's archives I

such an oddity.
What is supposed to be the "oddity" about it?

DECnet was originally developed on RSX-11 (Phase I) and DECnet as of Phase IV
still runs on RSX-11. RSX-11 Cannot run Phase V, however.

I just rescued a pair of VAX 4000/500 boxes which I plan on setting up as
a cluster once I get the second node online (right now only the one is
running, need to find some stuff to get the second one online) and I thought
that I should really get linked back into HECnet.
Just thought I'd say Hi and let you all know what's going on.
Howdy.
Peace... Sridhar

Just wanted to share the photos.
I was at The Alternate Party with 20 VaxStations/Microvaxen.
Young people were more interested about playing Tetris but some
old-timers also had interest for the cluster.

I have finally managed to get my rx2600 running, it's accesible on HECnet with the host name RHESUS (1.403).
It's a dual Itanium 900MHz, 8 GB of RAM, one 146 GB disk running OpenVMS 8.3-1H1. Let me know if you want an
account, esp. for stuff like porting software across to IA64.
Very nice! I'm quite envious, 8.3-1H1 is Itanium only, which means the Alpha doesn't have iSCSI support yet. I'd love to know if you can use iSCSI on a system running 8.3-1H1 to connect to a box running FreeNAS.

Oh yeah, my bad.
Sorry, the box wasnt running at the time so I never got around to downloading it. Well, C down, the rest to go :)

No, I still don't have any compilers even though I obviously have the licenses to run them. :(
Is there anyone here with a DSPP membership or something who could get me the distributions?
