Are you on HECNET Fred?
SLAVE is currently up and has various layered products available.
I'm not sure whether you mentioned if you were running on Alpha or IA64?

  Afternoon all ...
 Is there a VMS layered product repository available on HECNET ?
 There was some discussion on c.o.v. about LSEDIT, and I'd to play 
 around with that.  I emailed the OpenVMS Customer Lab about getting 
 FTP access to layered products as a hobbyist, but they say since 
 OpenVMS 8.3 is EOL, they won't provide the link.  I did not think 
 layered products were version specific?  I suppose I could upgrade my 
 DS10 to a more recent version, but that seems like a lot just to play 
 with a layered product.

 Fred,
   They should give you the logon credentials if you let them know 
 you're a Hobbyist (I just forwarded the email I got from them with the 
 PAK info as proof).  The version of DECset on FTP should work with 
 V8.3 so don't tell them you're behind.  Or tell them you need access 
 to V8.4 so you can upgrade (even if you don't). ;)
