- Subject: System Specific Guides
-
- Here is an updated list of system specific guide available via FTP or
- LISTSERV. If you know of others, please message me. Note that I am only
- looking for archived guides that explain networking from the point of view
- of a given operating system, such as VM/CMS, VAX, UNIX, and so on. I am
- not looking for guides to specific networks such as AARNET or SURAnet.
-
- While to some extent all guides do explain the Net with some operating
- system in mind, I am looking for guides and manuals that are particularly
- explicit with the ins and outs of a given operating system or editor/mailer.

- * System-Specific Guides
-
- Ruedenberg, Lucia. Beginners Guide to Networking on VM/CMS.
- Available from LISTSERV@TEMPLEVM or
- LISTSERV@VM.TEMPLE.EDU as the file CMS GUIDE. This
- guide is highly recommended for any users on the
- VM/CMS operating system.
-
- St. Sauver, Joe. The VAX Book. (1989). Available in
- Postscript and TEX format via FTP from
- decoy.uoregon.edu in the /pub/vaxbook/ directory. 326
- pages long. The VAX Book is an example-oriented guide
- to using a VAX/VMS system in a networked environment.
- While it is tailored to the University of Oregon's VAX
- 8800 system, the skills it illustrates are general
- enough to be of interest to users at most other VAX
- sites, and even users at many non-VAX sites connected
- to the national networks. See the README file for
- retrieval details.
-
- Thomas, Eric. LISTSERV MEMO. Available from LISTSERV@UOTTAWA
- or LISTSERV@ACADVM1.UOTTAWA.CA (or any other LISTSERV)
- as the file LISTSERV MEMO. Intended to help non-BITNET
- or non-VM/SP users in sending commands to LISTSERV and
- LISTSERV lists. This document is highly recommended
- for any non-BITNET users and those not on the VM
- operating system.
-
- The vi Editor. Available via FTP from ftp.sura.net in the
- /pub/nic/network.service.guides/ dirctory. The vi
- Editor is a very brief introduction to basic commands
- of the UNIX vi text editor.
