Is it still possible to get accounts on the LCM systems? I wanted to get a login on the
VAX 7000, but can?t figure out where to request an account.

What would you use it for if everything is shut down?

it wasn't there and when I asked (here or somewhere similar, don't

all their people.

I can?t speak for that, but the VAX 7000 is still online. Someone is obviously paying the

TOAD-2 is online as well (PDP-10 clone), and some of the emulated systems.
I finally found a link to the page to request accounts, on their Wiki, the page can?t be
found. I also discovered that a lot of the systems include GUEST accounts, the VAX isn?t
one of them. :-(

At least I don?t *need* access, I have my own VAXen. I just wanted to check something.

I used to have an account on the 7000, but I can?t find my login details. I did get an
email on March 13 2020 saying that they were temporarily shutting down the museum but the
online systems were going to stay online.
I wonder if anyone is monitoring sysadmin at livingcomputers.org <mailto:sysadmin at
livingcomputers.org> ?

LCM isn't completely shut down.

I had a VMS account on their VAX 11/785 (ROSIE) a few years ago, but didn't use it
much, and according to the note I had made in my
password manager at that time they expire general access accounts after 90 days
inactivity. Presumably policy that still holds.
