    Brief Description of Problem:
    -----------------------------

I wanked David through a *lot* of stuff getting his OpenVMS system going.

He's dual booting UNIX and OpenVMS, so I helped him set up an alternate root on 
his system disk.

Also walked him through fixing a "broken" user account, running bookreader, etc.

3591.2Helped with some more stuffHYDRA::NEWMANChuck Newman, 508/467-5499 (DTN 297), MRO1-3/F26Wed May 07 1997 11:479
One was that he used TELNET to get another username logged in to the same box. 
I suggested that he use CREATE/TERMINAL/NOLOGGED to do this instead (his problem
was that the TELNET process wouldn't have te terminal set up correctly).

I also talked him through getting the debugger up in a detached process through
CREATE/TERMINAL/NOPROCESS, defining DBG$INPUT and DBG$OUTPUT, and calling
LIB$SIGNAL(SS$_DEBUG).
