383.1 | try again | SMURF::WALLACE | Life's a beach, then you dive! | Mon Mar 24 1997 07:36 | 20 |
| Please try the download again. We had an issue with the 'tar' command
chopping off 3 characters of some file names because the path was too
long.
Also note, that you will now be downloading via httpd instead of ftp
and should see faster transfer rates. Additionally, the image you
download is a tar file compressed with gzip and will require that you
have access to a copy of gzip so you can uncompress the image. If you
are running DIGITAL UNIX V4.0 or greater on the system you downloaded
the image to, gzip is available on your system. Otherwise, a copy of
gzip is available from the web page.

383.2 | | VIRGIN::SUTTER | Who are you ??? - I'm BATMAN !!! | Mon Mar 24 1997 09:48 | 13 |
| The file
oskits::/usr/users/guest/kits/DECOSF1-V4.0C_OS\
/Vol1/Rev564.30/pthw1_bl02_cd1_docs.tar.Z
still contains release notes from 'Field Test II' though.
I'm not sure wether they are the right ones.
Regarding http download: I usually do it via an ftp script that
runs during the night so I guess I'll stick with that.

Arnold

383.3 | Not final V4.0C you are looking at | SMURF::WULF | | Mon Mar 24 1997 15:45 | 12 |
| Hi,
The V4.0C_OS you are currently viewing is old. That is not
the final revision. Documentation comes after we create
the first run of ssb version. The final version is 254.31
which has the final docs. You won't find it here. You
have to go to webkits to get this kit per Jon Wallaces
reply.

383.4 | aren't rev numbers supposed to increase? | RHETT::MOORE | | Mon Mar 24 1997 16:00 | 9 |
| The version is 254.31? I had thought that revision numbers
were going to increase monotonically beginning with 4.0, to
avoid the confustion that arose with all the 3.2 versions.
This was the case with 4.0 (386), 4.0a (464), and 4.0b (564).
Has this policy, if it was ever official, been abandoned?
Thanks,

383.5 | | SMURF::MENNER | it's just a box of Pax.. | Mon Mar 24 1997 22:39 | 1 |
| i believe Brenda met rev. 564.31 (hw release based off of V4.0B (564)).

383.6 | Make sure V4.0something means it! | VIRGIN::SUTTER | Who are you ??? - I'm BATMAN !!! | Tue Mar 25 1997 12:29 | 10 |
| Usually V4.0C_OS means that this is the SSB version.
Maybe we should stick with this naming scheme and name the FT's
something like X.... or T....
The V... should be strictly for SSB versions!!
Regards,
Arnold
