Re: Can a VM machine ...
There is just one thing wrong with it: if it is not allowed in the hercules config file (with DIAG8CMD ENABLE), VM crashes: /hcp test /19:54:55 HHC00009I RRR...RING...GGG! / / / /19:54:55 DMKDMP908I

Re: Wondering ...
Indeed they can. Great stuff! I assume you mean HECnet in particular, not DECnet in general, and are referring to the recent lengthy mailing list thread regarding debugging of some network stack

Hey! I'm not familiar with DECNet. I'm looking at the possibility of using CTCA to allow the VM Backup program to talk to other copies of itself. The idea being offsite backup or copies of backups.
