ECO KIT SUMMARY:                                                              
                                                                              
An ECO kit exists for DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 on OpenVMS Alpha V6.2.    
This kit addresses the following problems.                                    
                                                                              
  o  The CPU affinity for NETACP was modified to prevent a potential          
     system crash or race conditions leading to a deaccess hang in            
     an SMP or EV5 environment.                                               
                                                                              
  o  This kit will also modify the DECnet $PROBE to prevent an access         
     violation on zero length $QIO reads or writes.  This zero length         
     $QIO, for example, could be used when terminating a series of            
     IO$M_MULTIPLE reads or writes.

	We want to get the following images urgently, but
	I cannot get to the node EDB, seems to be unreachable.

	Does anyone have these images ?
	Does anyone know which TIMA kit includes these images ?

I don't know the detail of this problem but by quickly looking into 
COMET database(http://www-comet.alF.dec.com:8034/) the newer images are 
available under CSC32::DOCROOT:[COMMON.INTDRV.ENG_IMAGES.HPAQ6B385].
