OpenVMS Hobbyist License Question

I am at the Decwindows logon after having logged on as SYSTEM and can go
no furthur as the login says I have no licence. The OpenVMS 7.2 pack I
got in the mail gave no information to speak of keys.

Yes, I loaded motif 125 which is why I am able to complain. This is the
first time I have seen Graphics from the machine since I aquired it. I
had terrible trouble finding a drive that would run properly. Until today
the only drive I could get the install to work with was an old Quantum 210
scsi. I hung a 4.3 gig quantum on it today and the install went like
BUTTER. Great! But not great without the keys to the barn.....

Just as I received your message I got through via the montagar website for
a key to the operating system but I'm not confident yet that this is a
fix. The website said that my app had been accepted using my Worleje user
code...... Hope I get the info I need. Thanks for your reply.

Since I'm so close machine-wise, I hate to be slowed by a website.
