Greetings,
This afternoon I registered my DECUS^H^H^H^H^HEncompass membership
number with Montagar software for OpenVMS. By the way, not knowing
the CPU ID of my VAX, I entered a '?', and that satisfied their
registration script. The last time that I attempted to register with
Montagar, my Encompas membership ID number was rejected, so I didn't
get a CD-ROM back then. A short while ago, an e-mail arrived with the
license to use OpenVMS; alas, the license expires in one year. Will
this expiration date have any effect on the useability of the software
after the expiration date?
After the license expires you will need to get another license:- and again a
year after that one expires, year after year after year after...
Once the license has expired you'll only be able to log into the console.
This is the way that the hobbyist program works. I'm afraid,
Dave.
