    info on other bands topic, ask the universe, digressions,etc...
    
    of course, you are always free to start your own like this...  while we
    occasionally flail away at organizational attempts, anarchy still
    reigns... :^)
    
    as to your other question, other than to say i've also heard rumors,
    i can't shed any additional light at this time.,..

    	It would be nice if more moderators had an sense of humour like
    yours. The reply was most appreciated and quit humourous I might add.

    re: moderator policies.
    
    Remember, most conference moderators ain't DeadHeads(tm).
    
    We try not to get too anal here...and we count on the non-moderator
    types to tell us when we forget that.
    
    Welcome!

    	Thanks Dave!
    
    	The hospitity and all 'round good vibe in this conference is
    	quite refreshing. Now if I could just find out some info on my 	
    	*may be* trip to the west coast....
    
    	Kevin

    	Just FYI, Neil Young has cancelled the up and coming 
    	Lolapolloooza[sp?] gig, to cut a CD with.....Pearl Jam!
    	Should be 'very' interesting.....

    	Looking for some ALLMAN BROS. info....
    
    	Was wondering if anybody knew if they were presently on tour.
    	Caught them at GREEDSTOCK '94 and they SMOKED! I may be headed
    	south soon and would love to catch up with them somewere.I do
    	know that they were defenatly on tour, but for how long,where,
    	and what dates I am completely in the dark. Any input would be
    	appreciated.

    Thanks rick 
    

    Rick, please excuse my ignorance for I am quite green in this 
    area we dwell in.I went to my notes and attepted to ADD ENTRY your
    HORDE recipe...we both know what happened.Could you briefly explain
    or direct me to some info were I might enlighten myself as to why
    this did not work.
    
    	thanks

Kev,

VMS Notes can't deal with web pages.

You knead a World Wide Web (WWW) browser such as "Mosaic" or "Netscape."

If you have a VMS system and $UCX works on your system, then copy over
everything in:

    SUBPAC::DISK$SUB_USER2:[MAGGARD.PUBLIC.MOSAIC]*.*

to somewhere in your user directories, and then follow the directions in the
00_README.TXT file.


- jeff

    thanks for taking the time jeff. i'll see what i can do.
    
    	-kev
    

    jeff,no access to vms,but at least i now no what a web is 
    .
    thanks again,

    In another unrelated topic: a question!
    
    I am fairly new to the notesfile and conferencing in general. I have
    been trying to gain access to the RECORDS file but have been
    unsuccessful for at least three weeks now.It reads "file read error"
    Quite easy enough to understand,but what does this really mean? Is it
    down for good? Any explanation (with out making me feel like a complete
    idiot,if possible) would be appreciated.
    
    thanks
    
    -kev

    re .-1
    
    maybe the notesfile died (i.e. the moderator got TFSO'd and they
    killed his account). I get a similar message trying to access 
    the MARKETING notesfile.

    Possible...how about 'remote node not currently reachable' (i get this
    when trying to access DRUMS)?
    
    TFSO'd??????

I use node DOBROS for the records notes file.

Check ANCHOR::NET$LIBRARY:EASYNOTES.LIS for the latest list of notes files.  I
suspect your entry for records is out of date.

    Thanks Adam.I too use the DOBROS node...go figure.
    

>    Thanks Adam.I too use the DOBROS node...go figure.

While the name of a node is something people can understand, the computers
actually use a numerical address to reach another node.  Perhaps this
system moved and your system manager hasn't updated the network database.

A quick test:

 From your system do:

  $ mc ncp show node dobros

  Here's what I get from my system:

   Node Volatile Summary as of 13-MAR-1995 07:45:06

      Node           State      Active  Delay   Circuit     Next node
                                Links

    8.341 (DOBROS)                               SVA-0        28.1015

 Now, do this one:

   $ mc ncp tell anchor show node dobros

   Here's what I get:

   Node Volatile Summary as of 13-MAR-1995 07:46:27

       Node           State      Active  Delay   Circuit     Next node
                                 Links
   
    8.341 (DOBROS)                               BNA-0        55.10 (ESCNGR)

Note that in this case the numbers (8.341) are the same.

If they are different in your case, the one from ANCHOR is correct and your
DECnet database is out of date.  

	dave

    Dave, thanks for the help.The RECORDS file is now up and running,but
    for some weird reason all of the notes that were added since i've been
    noting there are .....gone.
    Oh well,i'm just happy to get it back up.
    
    thanks again,
    
    -kev

Just re-set your seen map:


	SET SEEN /BEFORE=01-JAN-1995

That command will make NOTES think that everything since 01-JAN is unseen.

	dave

    Thanks again o wise one
