I regestered with vmshobbyists a counple of minutes ago, in order to get the VAX license PAKs for my SIMH VAX (I was away from VMS for 17 years, but it all came back to me in minutes). Simple q: what are the next steps? The HP hobbyist site wants a membership at decus or any "other" connected organization: how do I tell them that I have it now? KR Felix (Vienna). BTW: good to be back again at the VAX!

The VMSHOBBYIST site no longer handles the license registration.

You need to first join an organization like encompasserve.org. To join it, (free), telnet to it and sign in. That will get you a membership number.

Then http://www.openvms.org/pages.php?page=Hobbyist to sign up for the license keys that you need.

And the e-mail should have information on downloading the software.

The license renewal/registration link is dead. Any ideas on where we should be going now?

No more VAX hobbyist licenses. Community licenses for Alpha/IA64/X86_64 VMS Software Inc. Commercial VMS software licenses for VAX available from HPE.

Just re-visiting.. No more hobbyist licenses? Is that from vmssoftware.com, no 'community' licenses?

I recall that the disks failed on the public access VMS systems that included Fafner

Anyone know what happened to FAFNER.DYNDS.ORG? I had a hobbyist account here but can longer access the site.

At one time, didn't this web site have a job board? I would love to use my legacy skills one last time in my career.

New Hobbyist PAKs for VAX/VMS are no longer available according to reports. Only commercial licenses are reported to be for sale from HPE

Eisner, which is currently being moved, got an SSH update and the keys were updated to more modern encryption standards.
