I have a Microvax based VAX station running ULTRIX 4.3 (rev 44). I will
appreciate if you can help me for the following:

1) How can I create TK70 bootable backup tape.  If something goes wrong, I
would like to reload entire Operating system and all file systems from
scratch.

2) My user interface is DECWINDOW. Does ULTRIX comes with Xwindows as well
as DECwindows? How can I find out if I have Xwindow software? 

3) How can I replace DECWINDOWS with Xwindows.

4) I have SLPI and PPP account which I have been accessing using my Mac.
Where can I find Internet software(PPP or SLIP)  for ULTRIX?

5) If SLIP or PPP is not available for ULTRIX, how can I use my VAXstation
to down load public domain software over Internet?

I will appreciate your help.

Thanks
