If you go back far enough in time (i.e. before V5.0 iirc) then there
were no licence paks. Instead you had tapes that would allow more logins
or more networking. For anything else, if you had the media, you could
install (although to be legal you were supposed to have a licence).

Hello,I have a current hobbyists license for
OpenVMS 7.3 and a
handful of simulated VAXen. I wanted to add my simulated 11/780 and
11/782 to my DECnet and wondered if there was a (legal of course)
license workaround to install networking on an older version such as
4.4. The current PAKS will not work.Brian.
My discussions 4 ~ 6 month ago with people from the Hobbyist License
program told me that I could (re)use my single hobbyist license on
multiple VAXen, physical and / or virtual.
If you are worried or want confirmation, please send the contact for
your existing license an email.? Or go through the Hobbyist License
front door and inquire.
They were quite friendly and seemed happy to answer my questions. The
worst was the sometimes multi-day turn around time.? But I'm not
complaining for something free.? :-)
