My connectivity is down again, and my machines feel really alone... My HECnet bridge to psilo appears to be dead. Is that what you're talking about? My Multinet links to STUPI, FRUGAL, and GATE18 appear fine. My link to SG1 has been down for a while - don't know what happened to it or Steve. Bob

The DECserver 900TM seems to be working well. Regards Rob I believe the WWENG2.SYS from Dave McGuire is version 2.2. I have a 900TM booting 2.4, and another which I loaded with 2.2 from Dave. 2.2 works, but 2.4 seems more stable and faster, but I just have 2.4 on a card in the one 900TM. Does anyone either have the 2.4 or newer file, or know how to copy the WWENG2.SYS off a 900TM? Mark -- Mark G. Thomas (Mark at Misty.com), KC3DRE

Re: [DECtec] VAX/VMS Software Source Book, 6th Edition (Oct 1990) PDF, Programming in VAX Fortran PDF

It's a very handy guide to programming in Fortran that covers everything you'd need to get up and running with the language under VAX/VMS, including the use of EDIT, compiling, linking and debugging, as well as reference material on the language and supporting libraries. Wow, that's a lot of scanning. Awesome! Thanks! -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ/3 New Kensington, PA
