[HECnet] Introduction

OK, that's clear. After breakfast I will post more. 
deleting a file under vms requires:
- the full name
- sufficient rights and/or privileges
A full filename means that the version numver must be included. 
DEL X.X wont work while DEL X.X;2 will
Wildcards are permitted. 

If it is a security setting, try DIR/SEC *.COM. The protection is given for 4 (system) O (owner) G (group) or W (world). 
Can you post the command you entered?

Mark, I'll boot one of my alpha's today and post the contents of a private server dcl file that works for me. On an S3 Trio card, I have no 3Dlabs hardware.

I think the flags I'm looking for are pretty universal, it's just how to format them etc.

Another point - I can copy the template file to the .com file just fine. I ca't delete the .com file using the same file location, it says it doesn't exist, yet I can edit and copy it fine using the location:

SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM

Try to delete that and it balks at me. I obviously don't understand the file system in VMS yet either, it's a bit 'alien' compared to UNIX :)

The 3Dlabs card is software settable, right? Not a jumper setting that must be   changed. 

Steve Hoffman makes no mention of the PowerStorm 4D10/ELSA GLoria Synergy (it's a 3DLabs Permedia 2 8MB) needing special treatment, I'm sure he'd have noted that in his guide (as he has does the PowerStorm 3D30 and 4D20)

That's the card. No switches or jumpers that I can see.
