Some of them will be put I HAVE a VAX as it happens, unfortunately, it doesn't have Ultrix, which is the only U*ix that will run on it. (Mod 6000-310 64mb XMI Bus) It has VMS instead. Seems to be an OK operating system, unfortunately it has no native TCPIP (Decnet :^( ) and it's S-L-O-W. Unless you know of a U*ix compile that will run on an XMI bus machine? I hope? (Ultrix is DEC proprietary and $ x lots) Cheers Geoff Computer Systems Maintainance St. Marks College Port Pirie S.A. geoffrob@electech.dialix.oz.au
