I should have mentioned that when first starting out you should (add entry) to the "Sample" (NOTES$SAMPLE)conference. Then "open notes$sample". This conference give some great information and guidelines for the use of the facility. -Steve -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of Steve Davidson Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2013 09:35 To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Subject: [HECnet] HECnet Notes Conferences created The following VMS/Notes conferences have been created: LABVAX:: HECnet General discussions about HECnet Whatever Any topic you wish (outside of HECnet). DEC used to call this one "SOAPBOX". STRGTE:: DCL_PROCEDURES DCL Procedures for any/all DEC operating systems INSTALLATION_REQUESTS If you need ANY help installing ANY DEC product this might be the place to start. RSTS General discussions about RSTS and RSTS/E RT-11 General discussions about RT-11 SYSTEM_MANAGEMENT General discussions about non-specific System Management VMS_SYSTEM_MANAGEMENT General discussions about VMS System Management Each conference has two initial notes. The first note is a welcome notice. The second note is reserved for system related messages. Each of these notes are marked "/NOWRITE" and are reserved for system/moderator use. Additional conferences will be created as necessary. We are looking for additional conference topics, hosts systems, and moderators. Please step up to make this a success. All you need is notes running on one of your systems to host a conference, or an account on a system with notes running to administer (moderate) one. The Notes Conferencing System has extensive help within it to make the moderator task easier. If you need an account (do I hear another Notes Conference in the works), just ask either Sampsa or myself and we can set you up. Maybe the first additional Notes Conference should be about the care and feeding of Notes Conferences! :-) Enjoy! -Steve
