I have completed the install on a zx6000. I am connected to it via TeraTerm from Windows and logged in as system. I hoped that i can paste the text from the license file i got via mail via the terminal emulation but i get buffer overruns. As far as i know i can get no networking running before installing at least some licenses. Which would be the bare minimum licenses to be able to transfer the file via network? Any hints how to overcome these overruns in terminal emulator would be also welcome. Thanks. Regards Ralph

Check the status of the terminal emulator as well as the terminal type on OpenVMS. (SHO TERMINAL should help).
Post the terminal specs from the above and verify similar characteristics for the emulator.

Also, while not important for the listed problem, the ZX6000 is an Itanium based system not Alpha. This should be posted in the Integrity forum.

The console terminal port is often limited in buffer size. Get the VMS and IP licenses installed, then you can use a telnet session to paste the rest of the license file.

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.

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