(I may be too late answering this, because I'm mobile and there's a billion messages in this thread that I haven't read yet...) I'd really like to see a Hecnet-based solution - like a set host to a captured account on mim or something would be nice. A web page kind of breaks the illusion of an antique network :). Limiting access to hecnet methods sort of self-polices just by itself.

Maybe you can set up regular dumps of the database for restoration in case someone screws up. I can certainly do that. It just becomes a question of people might need to reenter information in case a rollback has to go far. Also trickier to realize if "corruption" actually have happened perhaps. On the other hand, I could atleast have permissions that only allowed random people to modify data, not add new, nor delete. That's a really good idea. I second this. How flexible is Datatrieve's permissions system? You can identify users either by UIC, or by entity-specific passwords. And for each type of thing in there you have Read, Write, Modify, Extend, and Control. And the access is a list, with the first match being the permissions used. So I could either make sure all people who might want to modify this have their own account on MIM, or else I could just create password protected access, and we could have shared or private passwords.

TOPS-10 and DECnet Progress Update

Thank you. Why is CTERM so slow on TOPS-10? Because CTERM was designed, in essence, as a remote procedure call representation of the VMS terminal driver features. The ones in TOPS-10 are entirely different -- just consider the way carriage return echoes. So TOPS-10 is forced to do its terminal I/O through a protocol that doesn't come close to matching what it really wants to see. I suspect it simply runs things in single character mode, since that's about the only way to guarantee that you get what you want. Ahhhh. Yeah. That would explain it. Come to think of it, TOPS-10 RTERM mode may well be just that, but it's a very lightweight protocol so it's fast. It also has the nice benefit that it exists on systems that don't do CTERM -- like RSTS. Yup. Very beneficial on systems without CTERM. ;) paul -- Cory Smelosky http://gewt.net/ Personal stuff http://gimme-sympathy.org Experiments

I might need to play with buffers) If you use the CTERM protocol, it will be always slow and sluggish, no matter how much you'll try to tweak it. Try SET HOST /APP=R and appreciate speed :) It's MUCH more usable when using RTERM. Thank you. Why is CTERM so slow on TOPS-10? Credentials are guest and the password is guest. Still need to install some stuff for language support. If you like it more, there is a way to have a user with no password (and/or with the ability to actually change password disabled). Just play with REACT and look for the right incantation, because I do not remember it anymore... It's related to requirements I believe.
