Create an account on Eisner and it will generate a member number. Check S=
teve Hoffman's site for details <http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1416>
Alternativly, ssh to
eisner.decus.org. log in with the username REGISTRA=
TION and create an account. Then type HOBBYIST at the DCL prompt and it =
will give you the info to get your license. List DECUSERVE as the partici=
pating chapter.
