  It's basically the VMS kit that contains the DS200 load software, but it
comes with several useful command procedures too.

Neat!   Thanks for the pointer.   I've always just gotten the bare images and
dropped them into place...I guess I never stopped to think of how those
images would've gotten installed in the first place.

When I was a VMS sysadmin, we used a few Emulex terminal servers
("Performance 4000" if memory serves) that were really nice...I don't recall
them having to boot from the network, though.   I have a few of those here
with dead power supplies.   I should send them to Cory. ;)

They did and they had their own kludgy load assist agent for MOP.

  Ahh, your memory is better than mine!   Could they boot from the regular MOP
server or did they require that agent?

The Datability (Vista) Terminal Servers had their software in flash.

  Never 'eard of 'em.
