    Anyone know what happened to DoomGate?  Was working fine but now
    says not found on server.

    I can get to DoomGate just fine...connected yesterday too !!!
    
    Do you still have a problem ? Maybe he was updating the DoomGate front
    page and took it offline for a while?
    
    Jonathan
84.612160::GOGUENDigital Consulting - FBEWed Jan 04 1995 10:349


    Nope, just tried it and I still get:
    The requested URL /~kapis-p/doom/Doomgate.html was not found on this server.

84.7VESSA::MICHAELSONJUtopia - a place without humansWed Jan 04 1995 11:429
    
    Hmmmmm <scratching head>, I just tried again using the URL you
    specified a couple back, and........it worked just fine !!!
    
    Is anyone else having problems ?
    Maybe this is a networking issue (although the error doesn't seem to
    indicate this) ?
    
    Jonathan
84.8KERNEL::BROWNMDRACWed Jan 04 1995 12:264
    try just doom.html rather than doomgate.html, this comes up with a page
    title DOOM GATE, and the rest of the address corresponds :-)

84.11FORTY2::HOWELLJust get to the point...Thu Feb 23 1995 10:193
    Would anybody be interested in an Inter-Digital WWW page for us all?
    Thanks to the firewall it would only be available to in-digital
    peeps.... but it could kinda replace 'flyte' in a way....?
84.12KERNEL::BROWNMDRACThu Feb 23 1995 10:285
    Sounds a good idea, who'll write it?
    
    I've done some html if you want, and who's going to provide the server?
    
    Mark
84.13FORTY2::HOWELLJust get to the point...Thu Feb 23 1995 10:431
    How did I guess you'd mention something, Mark? :-]
84.14KERNEL::BROWNMDRACThu Feb 23 1995 10:459
    I can't think ;-)
    
    Well, my final year project will be based on WWW and HTML :-)
    
    I'd be happy to write it if people tell me what is wanted, with perhaps
    a layout and a few pictures that are wanted.  I don't want to actually
    design the thing, I am just offering to write the html tags and stuff.
    
    Mark
84.15FORTY2::HOWELLJust get to the point...Thu Feb 23 1995 10:547
    Well I've got the design.
    
    My machine will host it, plus all the archive files.
    
    I can scan the piccys and stuff.
    
    You can do all the whizz-bang stuff (well, we'll do a bit each).
84.16BAHTAT::HILTONBeer...now there&#039;s a temporary solutionThu Feb 23 1995 10:584
    Just use the Microsoft word thingy, design your page is WYSIWYG and
    away you go!

    Have you got a PC on the digital network?
    
    If so get yourself a tCP/IP address and get Netscape.
    
    If you haven't you must have access to a VAX, or unix box?
    If it doesn't run motif or X Windows you can run Lynx.  See
    ljsrv2::internet_tools for more info on how to get www access.
    
    Mark
    
84.20Thanks for trying to help but...SHIPS::HEWETT_NOi... NUTTER!Tue Mar 07 1995 13:2410
    Sure I have access to the net; however I do not have the best working
    relationship with my system manager. If I ask for access to the web I
    hit a blank wall, and if I try to install the necessary s/w myself he'd
    probably have me disciplined.
    
    Guess I oughta leave, Sigh...
    
    Anyone got any use for a graphic designer come MS-WORD 6.0a expert?
    
    	Nick. ;-)
84.21Just an account on currnt will do.OVAL::CARSONDon&#039;t leave earth without oneTue Mar 07 1995 13:538
    If you have an account on currnt then run x-mosaic. No need for a
    tcp/ip address. Check the internet_tools conf for pointers to kit
    locations.
    
    Works for me :-)

84.22KERNEL::BROWNMDRACTue Mar 07 1995 14:029
    If you have a PC you don't need to worry about sysmanagers.  If you
    haven't you may find that the system either has lynx or xmosaic or if
    you are lucky netscape for Xwindows.
    
    If not I'll see about installing lynx on the node I system manage and
    I'll give you an account.  But it will take about a week, I will need
    to find out how to install lynx

    Back to the poor guys original question...
    
    ..FLYTE will stay in its entirety, don't worry. Well, at least until
    July, when I'll be leaving... I'll try and find someone to take it
    over... I'm sure it will live on in another incarnation :-)

    Cripes!  You are too kind sir.  ='.  I'll try and get an account on
    TRUCKS:: first, which is the SOLENT wide node for VMS accounts. Just
    picked up a form, all I have to do is persuade my line manager to sign
    it.
    
    If this fails I,ll take you up on your offer, many thanks.  :)
    
    Thanks Dan for the reassurance, sorry to hear you're leaving though.

    So you are unable to install software on your own PC, or is it just
    that you don't have your own pc and just have access to PCs in general.
    
    re -2
    
    Sorry about that, must have caught us on an off day.  Do any of the
    recent replies correspond to your situation.
    
    I will see what I can do about installing Lynx on my node (greebo) and
    put on a generic Doom conference account that will have access to lynx.
    
    I will make it a captive account and post the username and password
    here.

    The PC's I use at work are 'owned' by the Design Group and 'ruled' by
    the system manager.  :']
    
    Nick.
84.28KERNEL::BROWNMDRACWed Mar 08 1995 09:029
    Tis a shame.
    
    I've just looked at the size of my netscape directory, you could
    effectively install it onto a floppy nad run netscape from the floppy. 
    That's an idea, as long as the PCs are already running TCP/IP.
    
    How does that sound?

    Nick,
    
    Does your PC have TCP/IP on it?
    
    Gary,
    
    What device do you use, X Windows, PC, VT terminal?

    Ok Gary,
    
    You have the necessary bits. Do you have an account on an UNIX machines
    or VMS machines, where you can get to a system prompt?
    
    If so, go ask the system manager if they have Netscape installed, and
    get them to show you how to run it and window it back to your vt1200.

    Sorry for the delay guys...
    
    been out of the office on forced leave.
    
    Told you I didn't get on with the sysman'. He tried to start a fight
    (no really!) in an attempt to get me sacked (no kidding). When he
    failed to make his story add up he left.
    
    I think I'll have the DECpc XL 566 in the corner thankyou!  ;^)
    
    In answer to your questions:
    
    > No we do not have TCP/IP at the moment (do we need a licence?).
    > running off a floppy sounds slow to me (am I wrong?)

    Cheers all,  !^)
    
    	Nick.
84.34KERNEL::BROWNMDRACTue Mar 14 1995 07:1515
    If you haven't got TCP/IP on your PC you cannot run Netscape on your
    PC.  If you are running eXcursion and the node you connect to has
    Mosaic you can fire a Mosaic session to your PC, or as you seem to be
    running motif on a VMS terminal, if the VMS system has Mosaic you can
    run it under Motif.
    
    Alternatively you can ask for the password to my public access lynx
    accoutn on greebo, set host/lat greebo or telnet greebo.uvo username
    lynx.
    
    send me e-mail at comics::brownm and I'll reply with the password, this
    will give you text based WWW so you can see the Doom WWW page and see
    if ti really is worth getting Mosaic access :-)
