Subject: System Specific Guides

Here is an updated list of system specific guide available via FTP or
LISTSERV. If you know of others, please message me. Note that I am only
looking for archived guides that explain networking from the point of view
of a given operating system, such as VM/CMS, VAX, UNIX, and so on. I am
not looking for guides to specific networks such as AARNET or SURAnet.

While to some extent all guides do explain the Net with some operating
system in mind, I am looking for guides and manuals that are particularly
explicit with the ins and outs of a given operating system or editor/mailer.

* System-Specific Guides

 Ruedenberg, Lucia. Beginners Guide to Networking on VM/CMS.
      Available from LISTSERV@TEMPLEVM or
      LISTSERV@VM.TEMPLE.EDU as the file CMS GUIDE. This
      guide is highly recommended for any users on the
      VM/CMS operating system.

 St. Sauver, Joe.  The VAX Book.  (1989). Available in
      Postscript and TEX format via FTP from
      decoy.uoregon.edu in the /pub/vaxbook/ directory. 326
      pages long. The VAX Book is an example-oriented guide
      to using a VAX/VMS system in a networked environment.
      While it is tailored to the University of Oregon's VAX
      8800 system, the skills it illustrates are general
      enough to be of interest to users at most other VAX
      sites, and even users at many non-VAX sites connected
      to the national networks. See the README file for
      retrieval details.

 Thomas, Eric. LISTSERV MEMO. Available from LISTSERV@UOTTAWA
      or LISTSERV@ACADVM1.UOTTAWA.CA (or any other LISTSERV)
      as the file LISTSERV MEMO. Intended to help non-BITNET
      or non-VM/SP users in sending commands to LISTSERV and
      LISTSERV lists. This document is highly recommended
      for any non-BITNET users and those not on the VM
      operating system.

 The vi Editor.  Available via FTP from ftp.sura.net in the
      /pub/nic/network.service.guides/ dirctory. The vi
      Editor is a very brief introduction to basic commands
      of the UNIX vi text editor.
