It's that time of year already !
It's too hot for me to run a VAX in my office at the moment so I've shut zarqon down for a while, sorry.
Knowing the British weather, I'm sure it will cool down again and I'll be able to power it back up fairly soon ;-)

Hello to everyone!
Does anyone here have a PDF or Postscript copy of the latest VAX Fortran 77
language reference manual and user manual to share? They should be AA-PU45C-TK
and AA-PUYPA-TE, respectively. HP site has only manuals about the newest HP
Fortran 90/95 compiler for Alpha and IA64, but they completely forgot VAX...
A throughout search of the whole WWW returned nothing suitable for printing. I
would accept DSR files too, because I can convert them to Postscript and PDF.
I'm sorry for the off topic question, but after asking for those manuals to
almost anyone I know, this message is one of my last attempts at finding them.
Thank you very much,
G. (Not English native, hope my English is good enough)
$ RESTORE/REPLACE/ACCOUNT//END=NODISMOUNT indev:[1,2]AUT101.A AUTOIN$:*.*
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM
$ $AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM indev:F77
Thanks - that worked! I probably wouldn't have guessed that one myself
:-)

If it were to use TCP, things would be a lot easier in this regard.
However, with UDP, you need to set things up more explicitly, since the
incoming and outgoing traffic isn't really related from the UDP protocol
point of view. UDP don't have the concept of a connection.
Johnny
Ok, I guess it would be best to use the bridge program. I should be
able to get a port forwarded to my laptop; I'll have to look a little
deeper to see what I need to do to get the laptop to re-forward that
port on to the Alpha (should just be an iptables command, I hope,
which I could add to the current gateway setup script).
Johnny, since nobody else has offerred to be the other end of my
tunnel, I guess I'll be making the hop to Uppsala.
Alright. Let's go with that for now.
Let me know when you want to experiment with this. We might as well take it off list...

Does anybody know the procedure for installing F77 v5.4 on RSTS/E 10.1?
@[0,1]INSTAL doesn't seem to work for that. There's a F77 v5.2 manual on
Bitsavers, but the RUN $BUILD procedure that it recommends also doesn't seem
to work for F77 v5.4.
V5.4 uses Auto-Install. If V1.1 or higher haven't been installed on your system, you need to do that first.
$ RESTORE/REPLACE/ACCOUNT//END=NODISMOUNT indev:[1,2]AUT101.A AUTOIN$:*.*
To invoke Auto-Install:
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM
(optionally)
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM F77 or
$ $AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM indev:F77

Thanks, I'd appreciate it. A long time ago I used RSX and VMS a lot, but
I've never touched RSTS until now so I know almost nothing.
I think the RSX manuals also holds how to install on RSTS/E.
At least in the case of F77 v5.2, there is only one installation manual -
it has chapters for RSX, RSTS and IAS.
Ok. In that case we should be good, since I have the 5.4 manuals.

What is the media that you're trying to install from? TK50? Are you
going to get a RSTS/E 10.1 system up on HECnet? I don't have the
necessary cooling to run mine. :^(
Zane
Zane, I'll most likely put up a V8 and a V9.6 system, but like you, I'm
not willing to put my my 11/53 10.1 system online without adequate air
to keep things cool and my 11/73 is still in the hands of my nephew. I
never had ethernet cards for either one so I would put up simh boxes.
Bob I haven't done an F77 install in over 20 years, but as I recall you
can most likely put the executables in [1,2] and the libraries in LB:
and just put in the CCL for F77 to be up and running. I never did like
the DCL install routines as they always messed up the logical tables.
Brett
What is the media that you're trying to install from? TK50?
Actually right now I'm doing it on simh - it's faster for "trial and
error" experiments than the real hardware. But I do have a 11/53+ w/ 3.5MB,
2xRA73s and a TK70 that I plan to eventually install it all on.
Are you going to get a RSTS/E 10.1 system up on HECnet?
Eventually, yes, although it probably won't run 24x7.
I don't have the necessary cooling to run mine. :^(
In the Pacific Northwest electricity is cheap - here in CA I can't afford
the power to feed all these machines!
