They have expiring licenses then?
I must have got lucky, all my VMS boxen have everlasting ones.
The only expiring license I ever saw on any of my systems was one for RDB (I
think).

It's a
Vaxstation 3100 model 42 a-bd with a mighty 8 megs of ram.
It works, too! Tim thoughtfully loaded VMS 6.01 on the rz23 ...
We've had to keep our clock set back to preserve our VMS and TCP/IP
and NFS and numerous other packages...
Anyone have a clue as to how we can preserve the software without
moving to some 'hobby' license of a newer VMS?
