[HECnet] DECUS/freeware archive

Mark,
If you still have access to the HP patch database then I'd suggest these OS versions:

VAX/VMS 7.3
Alpha/VMS. 7.3.
                                    7.3-2 
                                    8.3
                                    8.4
IA64/VMS.   8.3
                                    8.4
TCP/IP : all versions -please-

The reasoning behind the VMS versions is simple. The AXP variants are the "stable" ones, though I have my doubts regarding 8.4. I guess that 7.3-2 and 8.3 cover a substantial fraction of all hobbyist sites. 
Hobbyists with a VAX run everything for fun but if the VAX is still used for serious work it'll run 7.3. 
I'm clueless about what is en vogue in Itanium land. 
Personally I'd like to install the latest patches for the IP stack.

Jur has just posted back my hard drive with his entire DECUS & freeware 
archive - hopefully I can make this available to the HECnet community in 
its entirety via the magic of decnet...

I'm also trying to sort out my HP patch database access, so if there are 
any requests feel free to ask. I am planning on pulling down all patches 
for OpenVMS VAX 7.3.1, Alpha 8.3 and IA64 8.3-1H1.

Regards, Mark.
