| You could look in flume::/usr/decwin3/mit for files. It
looks like it is world readable.
Please keep business hours traffic (Eastern Time) to a
minimum.

| If you try getting it from flume, you will have to use rcp, not dcp. The decnet
guest account on our production machines is chrooted to ~uucp.

| there's also a copy on WJG::X11R3:
fixcore.tar has the 10 MIT patches applied.
WJG is a VMS node, FTSV should work fine.

1418.4 | Appreciate the help | MARX::ADAMS | | Thu Sep 14 1989 10:39 | 8 |
| Thanks for all the help! I was able to get a good copy networked
over from WJG. I notice it has both the core.tar, core.tar.Z
and constituent directories for core.tar.
Thanks, you just saved our cc and DEC $400.

1418.5 | Of course, one might wonder.... | VINO::WITHROW | Mass. recall petitions available here! | Thu Sep 14 1989 11:18 | 3 |
| how much it cost to transport the approx 15 megabytes through the network...
store it on a disk..., etc.etc.etc.... ;-)

| Considering that the network is build using leased lines which are paid
for at fixed monthly prices, not much more than just leaving the lines
idle...

1418.7 | How to copy compressed-tar files to VMS.. | UFP::MURPHY | A bug? Use the source, Luke! | Sun Sep 24 1989 20:22 | 5 |
| FWIW (give you've fixed you're problem..) you can't COPY the kit off
DECWRL to a VMS system. Use EXCHANGE/NETWORK/TRANSFER=BLOCK. Which, of
course, means FTSV is right out. Sorry....

1418.8 | FTSV works just fine!!!! | VINO::WITHROW | Mass. recall petitions available here! | Tue Sep 26 1989 11:26 | 12 |
| > Which, of course, means FTSV is right out. Sorry...
I routinely use FTSV to copy compressed tar files from DECWRL and other
*nix nodes. It works just fine!
To repetitively repeat this again one more time:
1) Use FTSV
2) Use a *current* version of LZDCMP with the -b -x2 switches
3) Use TARREAD (the source of which is available in the GNU notes file,
or from VINO::[withrow.public]tarread.c
