You can see the connected clients by useing the Infoserver management command: Infoserver> show last I am not sure how to determine this. When I boot the VAX and give it the ISL boot file, make it look for services, it comes back with something similar to: (the VAX is off and I'm ssh'ed in from somewhere at the moment so this is from memory) Services on MISER 00-xx-xx-xx-xx <-phy MAC of MISER # 1 VAXVMS073 Choose: I choose #1, and then it just sits. Have you checked that the SYSBOOT.EXE is continuous?

Fred Well, I'm not sure if you need to do it in this case, but it doesn't hurt if you do the following on the LD disk $ mc writeboot Select to update the VAX bootblock on the LD disk. If you have already done it, please ignore this. Regards, Kari
