I don't doubt it's a nice machine, much larger than I'm brave enough to
tackle though. The biggest such machine I'd like would be a VAX4000 class
system. Eventually I'd like to get something like an DS20 or ES40 for
running VMSon.

Do you have License PAK's installed that allow multiple users? For that
matter, do you have any License PAK's installed? If you don't have
licenses, a lot of stuff won't work.
