Ive been trying to dial out on our VAX 6220, but have had no luck with it. Perhaps someone can help me? There is a modem that I can dial in on, so I assume that I can dial out. (hopefully!). Were running VMS 5.2, using DCA hardware for the net (I dont think its DECnet). I just cant seem to find the port that the modems connected to. I dial into the VAX on one machine, and do SHOW USERS/FULL to see what port Im at, hang up, and at the main console, SET HOST/DTE node where node is the port shown to be before. No dice. Is it possible? Thanx in advance. Billy D'Augstine Azog-Thoth@cup.portal.com

Perhaps someone can help me? > I have developed a DCL procedure, DIALOUT.COM, that will let you dial out using a Racal-Vadic or Hayes-compatible modem at various speeds, then go into terminal mode or transfer data using various protocols (Kermit, C-Kermit, Xmodem, Zmodem, or CALOUT). Suggest you log onto this BBS from a PC or something and download or capture DIALOUT.COM, which is in file area 26. You will have to customize it to your particular installation, but that should present no problem. frank.mallory@blkcat.fidonet.org Silver Bullet BBS - 301-622-2247 -- Frank Mallory at The Black Cat's Shack (Fidonet 1:109/401) Internet: Frank.Mallory@f123.n109.z1.fidonet.org UUCP: ...!uunet!blkcat!123!Frank.Mallory
