Telnet to asuka.umtec.com, and Linux will answer you and ask for a username. Tell it "ts10". When asked for a password, press Enter. You will get the message "DZclient v0.0" and be told your line number. Lines above 6 currently do not work. I don't know why yet. At this point, you either struck out (got line #7 or higher) or are talking to TOPS-10. Push enter and wait - You should get a dot prompt. If you struck out, push control-backslash ( ^\ ) to tell dzclient to free your line and let someone else use it. If you just close your telnet connection without doing this, you'll hang the line and make it unavailable to anyone else. (I'll fix this later.) If you got through to TOPS, you should be able to type "LOGIN 42,2" to get logged in as NOBODY. There is no password on this account. If you want your own account (I dunno why...) bug me and I'll make one if I have time. I'm somewhat busy today. If it tells you you're already logged in, that means the previous person forgot to log out - I haven't implemented carrier control on the DZ11 ports yet. ^_^ If you're finished with what you're doing and want to quit, give the command KJOB (K for short) to log out of TOPS-10, then control-backslash to kill dzclient. I have to reboot every few days so the ts10 debug log doesn't fill the hard drive, but that'll generally be announced. Oh yes - The machine playing host (Asuka) is a Pentium 233 - It's old and slow. Please be patient. When a lot of terminals are active (typing something out) at the same time, it can get pretty pokey. ###### From: "Hal Berenson" References: Subject: Re: For those wanting to get logged in...

I hadn't logged in to a -10 in at least a decade. I kept a tape with the sources for DBMS-10/20 V6 around until the day I left DEC (in '94).

Of course, I wish I still had them :-) We don't have V6 in the archive, but we do have a DBMS-10/20 V5A tape in the PDP-10 archives with a saveset labeled "DBMS SOURCE" on it. I see some source files in that saveset, but it doesn't seem to be nearly enough to be the real sources. Can you look at it and tell me what you think?

They appear to be the sources for a few files that were needed for integration with the Cobol compiler, plus object files for some of the utilities.
