In previous years BITNET email has been available to attendees of the DECUS symposium. I haven't seen any mention of this in the literature sent out so far (or I may have mised it). Does anyone know if BITNET/InterNet email will be available in Las Vegas? and if so, how addresses will be set up? Thanks I hope this is useful, ---Paul. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Paul Waterstraat | Internet: epwaterstraat@ucdavis.edu o | Department of Geology | BITNET: epwaters@ucdavis _-\ _ | University of California | uucp: ucdavis!epwaterstraat (_)%(_)

The literature had some references to being able to "Remotely acccess" your system (presumably via TELNET I hope...). I would be interested as well, as it would save me from dragging along a laptop. %%%%% Signature v1.1 %%%%% Doug Mohney, Operations Manager, CAD Lab/ME, Univ. of Maryland College Park * Why do VMS system managers get more sleep and less ulcers than their * * UNIX(TM) counterparts, despite the sophistication of UNIX? *

I seem to recall a recent posting to JNET-L which said that plans were in place to provide BITNET support in Las Vegas. As for usernames, that is usually a bit of a crapshoot since if five people with your name show up they have to assign 5 unique usernames, not easy to predict which is yours. You find out your username when you get to DECUS. :The literature had some references to being able to "Remotely acccess" your :system (presumably via TELNET I hope...).

Although there are plans afoot to get the DECUS home offices on the Internet (foo.DECUS.ORG), I don't think Internet access will be available at DECUS. The remote terminal support is a set of DEC terminals with dial-out modems. Occasionally a local university will provide a dial-in for Internet access. Haven't heard about anyone doing that yet.
