On a VMS system, try $ MON ETHERNET or any of the other undocumented monitor classes. Then try a command that definitely isn't going to be there $ MON NOTTHERE If the error messages are different - then at least some of the support for the undocumented classes is still there. -- Lee K.

It enabled the monitor class Ethernet. Is that code still hidden in MONITOR? The MONITOR utility was written in PL/I at the time. Probably rewritten, right? Hans
