After all, RSTS/E and VMS are more similar most of the time from a user point of view. In RSX there also is no default DECnet account. But in RSX, it's all about how you identify yourself, and what the service requires. With NICE, it looks like this: .ncp sho kno obj Known objects summary as of 17-NOV-21 18:25:49 Object Name Copies User Verification 0 Single Default Off 15 TCL...

Single Default Off NICE is object 19. Verification says "Inspect", which means that users are checked up, but the information is just forwarded to NICE, who can do whatever it thinks is appropriate. FAL and DDM require a valid local user, under which the service will be running. Most others do not care... I can't remember what TCL is right now. Potentially yes. Try it on some machine which have have access in some other way than over the network? ;-) Johnny -- Johnny Billquist || "I'm on a bus || on a psychedelic trip email: bqt at softjar.se || Reading murder books pdp is alive! || tryin' to stay hip" - B.
