Afternoon all,
I managed to get this to boot in SIMH with minimal effort. (Started from VMS 3.x and then installed 1.5 with a bunch of devices disabled)

What kind of networking could I get working on this? Pre-Phase-IV using a device SIMH doesn't have emulation support for? ;)
I can upload this disk image if anyone wants it.

Looks like someone tried and failed (from 8.403). If you want to try again please use a packet sniffer and send me the data.
Thanks

I am back online now. SHOW ADJ NODES won t work yet. You may fail to get a connection for SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS, that is my next task to fix.

That was me. I haven't touched that code in a while but I should go take a look at it again. It used SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS and SHOW ADJ NODES. Let me know when you're back online and I'll play with that some more. -brian On 4/3/2013 6:55 PM, Rob Jarratt wrote:
A while ago there was discussion of a program or DCL script that was automating the creation of a map of HECnet. It stumbled when it came to my user mode router because it did not implement NICE. Well, I have been doing some work to rectify that. The work is far from complete, but under the right circumstances and with a fair wind you can get A5RTR to tell you the output of SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS.
Who was doing that work, and which commands needed to be supported for the program/script to work?
Regards
Rob
NB A5RTR is not on HECnet at the moment because I have had a change of IP address and I am waiting for Johnny to tell his bridge to re-read its config.
Someone did though, from 8.403 by the looks of it. If you do try though please use a packet sniffer and send me the data.
Thanks

Sorry to spam you about this but I've actually got the instant messenger / presence management stuff I wrote to a stable enough level that I'll advertise it here.
You might ask what's the point of HIM if we already have VMS PHONE? Well, with HIM you can see who is logged onto ANY machine at any time on the network, instead of just the directory of a specific host.

OR you can just go to RHESUS::[.MEDIALIB.HIM] and grab the HIM.ZIP file.

Sampsa,
I've registered. I couldn't get the zip file direct from rhesus via decnet - you may want to check your permissions.
