Reply-to: lgy@blake.acs.washington.edu (Laurence Yaffe) I recently installed Ultrix DECnet software on one of our microvax II's. It seems to work - I can do remote logins, file copies, etc over dnet. However, I don't understand how access permissions are supposed to be handled between machines. I can't find any analogue of .rhosts files. As a result, I can't seem to copy a file from a local (Ultrix) node, into any directory on a remote (VMS) node except those which are world writable. Is there some way to do this? Apologies if this is all explained in the documentation I never got :-), I can't find anything useful in the on-line manual. On a related note, does anyone have print spooling set up to ship files to a VMS machine via decnet? If so, I would appreciate an explanation of just what you did. Thanks. Please send replied via e-mail (unless you really think its worth posting). -- Laurence G.
