Johnny, access to patches is difficult these days. For VAX / VMS use the HP hobbyist
program. Besides PAK's John Egolf, who runs it, will provide you with usercode
passwords for the latest kits. V7.3 hasn't changed much do you'll be up to date.

Sucked it down. Definitely sounds like it should be the thing.
However, how do I install it. PRODUCT INSTALL do not see it.
If I rename it to end in just .PCSI, PDOCUCT INSTALL is still
unimpressed, and exits with an error.
Is it compressed or encoded somehow? What should I do with it? (Speaking of which, I bet there are other updates and
patches I should
probably also install. How do one check which patches one have
installed, and how do I find out which ones I should install?)
Still interested in answers to this one.
