Joe Weber - ITEC Support Center 2.0 Is VMS Instal gone? ^^^^^^ We just installed ALPHA_FORT063 on a Open AXP VMS Ver 6.2 system. Install procedure: $ dir disk$soft:[ALPHA_FORT063.kit] DEC-AXPVMS-FORTRAN-V0603-711-1.PCSI;1 $ PRODUCT INSTALL FORTRAN /SOURCE=disk$soft:[ALPHA_FORT063.kit] Note: To install layered products that require the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility (indicated in the directories by file names with file types of .PCSI or .PCSI$DECRIPTION), use the PRODUCT INSTALL command or the Motif interface to the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility. Joe Weber - ITEC Support Center 3.0 Doing away with DECUS accounts ITEC has decided to stop spinning the DECUS CDroms. As most of you know, these were accessed by your SCxxxDS accounts. These accounts will also be deleted. The best way to get the latest DECUS files is through ftp site mvb.saic.com. If any of you know other ftp sites which also house this information, SCACAD would appreciate knowing of them so we can pass this information on to our members. 4.0 Updating ITEC member information form Roxanne Sarver from our ITEC office will be sending out ITEC information forms to each member site which lists Manager accounts and the person responsible for each of them. She will be emailing these forms to either the Advisory Committee member or License Manager at each member site. In order to keep our information up-to-date, we would like each member site to review this form and return it as soon as possible to Roxanne. Editor: Betty Spencer SCACAD@SNYBSCVA.CS.SNYBUF.EDU
