OpenVMS Hobbyist layered products

I figured out what I needed to do to register my newly installed
OVMS7.2(vaxstation4000/60) and Motif so now I've got Decwindows running.

I'd like to network the machine via TCP/IP. The hobbyist cd is supposed
to contain the TCP/IP product, but I must confess I have no idea even how
to see the contents of the cd. I can mount it and install products like
Motif IF I know what the product package's NAME is.....

Any help would be appreciated. It might be that the TCP/IP stack is
already on the machine but I can't tell that it is.

Basicly I have navigation troubles. All those string ($) signs are
freaking me out. Hey, I figured out AOS/VS II so I'm not stupid. I guess
I'm looking for a handout to help me network this vax to my other
machines. A new operating system takes something like five months for me
to gain fluency in. I'd like to cut the painful part a bit so I can surf
on the machine.

The last time I had navigation troubles, PHRACK was real useful (AOS/VS),
but 2600.com

My Sparcstation was never so strange. I guess Unix is Unix is Unix, but
VMS is odd.

Your's truely,

Jeff
