Just a guess, but on RSTS/E, you actually have to reinstall DECnet. I don't see how it could be easier on RSX. re-SYSGEN would actually be more convenient.

Hi, All,
is there any way to change system name on RSX-11M-PLUS without re-SYSGEN?
Thanks

There's a Windows NT client in Pathworks. I *think* it's capable of using Notes via TCP/IP? I don't remember. Or if you have XP or earlier you can install the last version (7.4?) of Pathworks32 and use it with native DECnet :)
No wait is it in Pathworks? Or was it just designed to work WITH Pathworks... I think it's in the wild somewhere. I've used it. Anyone else know?

Hi, Jordi,
what is NOTES?

You could just patch the system. :-)
$SYSNM is where the name is, unless I remember wrong. Check the
address in the map, and then ZAP the .SYS image. (And/or open the
memory locations on the running system, and change the value.)
Also, DECnet can change the name of a running system.
But no, there is no command that does it for you.
MCR>CON SET SYS NAME=XXXXXX
:)
Doh! Knocks myself on the head!
Thanks, Oleg. I had totally forgotten.

But on 4.6 error message differs from 4.5:
CON>set sys name=SKNRSX
CON -- Command execution error.
Attribute format error
SET SYS 003022 045523
This command doesn't work if DECnet is loaded.
It works with DECnet on 4.6! Correct format is:
CON>set sys name="SKNRSX"
On 4.5 with no luck :(
Thanks, Oleg!

I think this command works in M+ V4.6 only.
I try it on following:
RSX-11M-PLUS V4.5 BL83
>CONF ID
CON -- CONFIGURE Version 5.000
Task built: 18-MAR-13 22:20:04.1
HRC -- HRC Version 005.000
Task built: 18-MAR-13 22:21:11.1
RSX-11M-PLUS V4.6 BL87
>conf id
CON -- CONFIGURE Version 5.000
Task built: 25-FEB-2013 14:32:57.9
HRC -- HRC Version 005.000
Task built: 25-FEB-2013 14:33:21.8
Both don't work :(
