A quick question to the list: Has anyone installed HP's alpha

Hi Ross,
Thanks for reporting here. I've not installed CIFS, because I
don't have V8.2 of VMS (yet). I was also leery at first, because
of the supposed requirement for the TCP/IP (nee UCX) stack. I'm
given to understand that process.com is working to allow CIFS to
work with TCPware/Multinet.
Oh. I should mention the disclaimer. I also use Multinet. But if
you follow the instructions in 2.2.8 for using MN and force the HP
installation to completion (it advises you to quit the installation,
but you decline) you set Samba to use MN using the 2.2.8 and the HP
Samba information as a guide. And it works, which you'd expect,
except for issues that don't seem to be in any way related to the
stack you are using.
Since I have the old and the new Samba installs in different places I
can start either one after a boot.
Thanks also for your initial evaluation, and please keep us
informed of future developments. I'd like to see CIFS succeed, so
I'm hoping that HP will work with you to get the reported problems
resolved. Can anyone from HP who "lurks" here be able to help?
