It is a rare day. Rosenkrantz has been resetting to firmware so we bought another VAX 4000-60 to try sort it out and this one is the cleanest we've ever seen.

One thing puzzled me slightly over the last couple of days. Watching the auth logs I see login attempts with the following user IDs:
2024-11-30 SSH ALLIN1MAIL
2024-11-30 SSH PDP11
2024-11-30 SSH PDP8
2024-11-30 SSH TELEDEMO
2024-11-30 SSH DECMAIL
2024-11-30 SSH DECNET
2024-11-30 SSH SYSMAINT
2024-12-01 SSH SYSTEST_CLIG
which to this #oldfart #greybeard sounds very #DEC #VAX-like.
Anyone else seeing this? Or is somebody out there actually running an Internet-accessible VAX somewhere?
Just to add, I'm very pro Vax, this poem was just written from perspectives other than my own.
CVS in socal started receiving novavax today and will be taking appointments for it later in the week. Check with your local if you're looking for it.
(I am quite pleased, I thought I was going to have jump through hoops to find it)
Das #Rechenwerk in #Halle braucht mal einen kleinen Gefallen: Wir haben da eine #Robotron K1840 stehen, ein #VAX 11/780 Nachbau.
Uns fehlt eine seltene Platine um den Rechner starten zu können.
Wir haben einen Händler in den USA ausfindig machen können, der die benötigte Platine hat, sie aber nicht auf dem Postweg nach Deutschland versenden kann.
Wir brauchen nun eine Person, die für uns die Platine mal bei passender Gelegenheit mit nach Deutschland bringt.
