Andy Hoffman's 4.7 distribution is very nice. I was also pointed to
CMUTEK TCPIP for it on ALDUR:: and the result is a perfectly usable VMS
system with DECnet and TCPIP. The only thing I will miss is the PIPE
command in DCL. And I will have to write some sort of a web-server for
it which would be fun.
Anyone know the earliest version for a Vaxstation 3100
M38 and I would
love to find out if there is a source for VMS 2.2, 3.x, and 4.x... My
tapes are long gone as are my old Vax customers.
I would love to get my Vaxstation on HECnet one of these days.

VAX/VMS 4.x runs on the MicroVAX-III. ?I booted it once on my KA-650,
