Check out the documentation for either DIGITAL/HP TCP-IP services (UCX) or (better) MultiNet or TCPware from Process Software. It took me a bit of back and forth to figure out the MultiNet/TCPware difference, so here it is: MultiNet is configured in a more "VMS-ish" manner, whereas TCPWare is much more UNIX-y. Pick the one you're more comfortable with.
VMS predates large-scale acceptance of TCP/IP and so the TCP/IP stack and associated software are a layered product that must be installed. |

SAQ, the other way around (with MultiNet and TCPware).

Ah, well it looks like I'll have to grab TCPWare instead, then.
Note if you have a VAX box or emulated VAX the DEC TCP/IP services is very probably a very buggy version, at least in Hobbyist 2.0. Don't bother with it.
I haven't worked with Hobbyist-VAX 3.0, so don't know if that changed. Supposedly the last VAX release of TCP/IP services was redone to be much more efficient/fast/etc., but it isn't on any of the hobbyist media, nor does HP have it available for download, so if you're lucky enough to have a friend in the biz you might be able to try it out. The rest of us use Process stuff - which is pretty good.
-- just looked again at the forum, you're not running VAX, but I'm not sure how the Alpha hobbyist versions compared. The HobbyistV3 version seemed OK, but not fantastic.

Actually, I should note (from what the good Hunter Goatley told me not long ago) that MultiNet's interfaces are based on TOPS-20-style interfaces. So, it's still founded on a ‘DEC OS’ and in that sense still more VMS-styled than the DEC UCX, or HP TCP/IP Services as it's called nowadays.

I've used both TCPware and MultiNet, and I prefer the MultiNet interface slightly over TCPware. As has been noted above, both are light years ahead of UCX or TCP/IP Services for flexibility and functionality. |

There's also the free HGFTP, which runs under all the stacks. The current release has support for ODS-5 disks, which is something I've never gotten around to announcing.
HGFTP @ Process.com
