I brought SIGGE:: online two days ago. (VAX 7000-720).
Very nice!!
It is indeed. With 1.25G of memory as well.
Started YCPIP
services as well. Now the disk is full. I'm guessing some logging
somewhere, as people are crazy about probing and poking. TELNET stopped
working, but I can log in fine from DECnet or LAT.
Can anyone tell me where logs go, and how to clean it up so I free some
disk.
Where the TCP/IP logs go depends on which TCP/IP implementation you're
running. Many system logs go to SYSTEM's home directory,
sys$sysroot:[sysgmgr]. If you do a "purge *.log" there, that's a quick
way to free up some space in an emergency. You're losing log data that
way, of course, so it's a last resort, but it could get you up and running.
The standard TCPIP from DEC. I forgot to say that it's running OVMS 7.3.

I'll check if there are logs to purge. I'm not that interested in the
log data.
I have plenty on MIM where I can see what the stupid script kiddies are
doing.
(The ultimate irony is the scripts that probe telnet, which just hang
when they connect to RSX, as RSX do not prompt for any username. RSX
gives you an MCR prompt when logged out, and you can give any command.
And my telnet daemon actually gives you instructions on how to log in to
the machine, including a username and password, and the scripts all fail
at giving the script kiddie an account on the machine for the simple
fact that it don't heave like Unix, and noone ever sees my welcome
message. :-) )
