You're welcome.
I'll keep people posted on any additions to the mirror - if someone knows of other
stuff that should be up there, let me know.
Also, SOLAR is running on an emulated Alpha - which at times seems to suffer from a
massive drop in network performance - please let me know and I'll bounce the emulator
+ VM ASAP.

Sampsa,
Thank you for mirroring the Vaxhaven collection on HECNET as well as providing extracted
versions. If you come across ISOs of original DEC CDs that I don t have posted, I d
appreciate a pointer to them.
Thanks!

Guys, I've finally finished downloading and extracting stuff I think will be a useful
resource to HECnet users.
Altogether, there's almost 300 GB of stuff from various source on SOLAR::
As it currently stands, the default FAL directory on SOLAR:: contains:
Directory SOLAR::SYS$SPECIFIC:[DECNET]
FREEWARE.DIR The Freeware CDs, both ISOs and extracted contents
INCOMING.DIR Currently empty, feel free to add anything you feel like
VAXHAVENCDS.DIR The VAXHAVEN CDs, both ISOs and extracted contents
I had to add another drive to the machine to hold the DECUSLIB mirror, so we also have:
Directory SOLAR::DKA100:[DECUSLIB]
DECUS.DIR Extracted DECUSLIB stuff from
www.decuslib.com
ZIPS.DIR;1 The original ZIP files
These are all mostly accessible via HTTP at

There is also a really rudimentary search engine at
