Okay. Thank you for confirming what I suspected but was still doubting.
I believe that root should have access as the system's keytab has
host/$FQDN and nfs/$FQDN principals. Root also has a ticket granting
ticket, krbtgt/$REALM. At least I think that means that root has vlaid
Kerberos tickets.

That's my current working understanding. But, apparently I'm not
getting something correct. :-(
Thank you for the reply Craig.

Folks, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, thanks for all interesting
reading matter and let there be plenty of interesting stuff to read
about in a future, too.

If you're into retro computing at all, and want to see how to hook old
computers up to new HDMI monitors, then check out @craig1black's new
video on doing exactly that.

I find this quite impressive and will likely have to look into this further.

Ok - not so much of a newbie - fed punch tape into a reader for a PDP8
when I attended tech school back when the earth was cooling ....
I have my hands on a PDP8a and a Remex reader. They both seem to
function OK with basic tests.
I would like to try to read a Mylar punch tape to see if there is
anything interesting on it - as well as a couple of paper tapes.
My end run would be to show something useful running on the PDP8a - and
loaded with the punch tape.
The Mylar reel would have been the programming for a CNC machine. I
suspect the first part of the reel may be some boot loader or init
routine.
So, my thought is this - connect the Remex unit to a Pi or Arduino to
capture the data and have a look at it or, load the tape directly into
the PDP8 and see what happens? Then, examine the PDP8 memory locations.
So, the issue is that I have not researched the proper way to get the
tape and PDP8 initialized and reading into the PDP8. I am not 100% sure
the Remex unit is working, other than it spins the reels.
Any suggestions??
Love the forum by the way - I wish I had a machine that would slow the
clock on the wall down to give me more time to play. I guess they call
that retirement .....
Cheers,
Brian

Does anybody here recognize the manufacturer of this gear,
presumably some kind of punched paper tape equipment?
Second to the last image at:

I recently had the chance to play with a Blu-Ray transfer of the old
gothic sci-fi TV show _The Outer Limits_ (the original 1963-64 series),
and some of the 50s magnetic tape equipment used as recurring props
can be identified -- e.g., an Ampex FR200 data recorder, Magnecord and Roberts
audio tape recorders, and even a pair of old Univac Uniservo I tape drives
in one episode.
But that twin paper-tape device (if that's what it is), which occurs
in the background of a number of first-season episodes, remains a
mystery. The lower reels (if there are any) seem to be out of sight
in the lower part of the cabinet in all shots of the device, and
there seems to be a continuous loop of paper tape threaded around
the tape guides and back up to the upper reel (which is actually
spinning in at least one episode).
Anybody know what this might be?
Hi,
the Epson HX-20 handheld computer offered an interesting way to connect
it with peripheral devices. The serial port at the back of the computer
can talk to external hardware using an Epson-specific protocol for data
exchange. As this protocol is quite well documented, I wrote a little
program called "flashx20" (for FLoppy And Screen for the HX-20), which
allows to connect a normal Windows PC or notebook computer to the HX-20,
where the PC interprets the Epson serial protocol and simulates an
external display controller and four external floppy disk drives (like
e.g. the Epson TF-20).
With that, you get a big screen (the PC monitor) and disk space for
programs and data on the PC's hard disk, which can then also be used for
data and program exchange.
You can read more about it and download the program from my website at
