Tim or Allison, I could really use your help. Tim, I think something in
the mail system may be preventing my messages from reaching you.
I have O-VMS 6.2 up and running. What I need is someone else with a
MicroVAX to create an RX50 floppy, initialized with VMS, with VMSTPCE
(unzipped and ready to roll, ideally) copied to it. I cannot seem to
transfer it from my PC, via PUTR and VMS's EXCHANGE, to save my life.
This evening, I will try installing TCP/IP services on the VAX and try to
FTP the appropriate file from its resting spot on my server. However, I'm
not sanguine about the results given my difficulties over the last few weeks.
Sheesh... it should NOT be this hard to do a simple binary tape copy! If
tonight's effort fails, and no one else can help, I'll just install Ultrix
and try it that way.
