Tárgy: OpenVMS Update - Ok for external - Monday June 4th


Dear Internal and External Distribution lists,

Enclosed please find the latest VMS Update sorry for the delay, I think
the size explains it. 

Folks where do I start, there is so much to talk about. Probably with
the usual disclaimer that this is not an official newsletter just an
email between friends. We have had so much happen, hopefully you have
seen the Blades announcement from last week. The Boot Camp was the
biggest thing recently which has also received excellent customer
feedback. At this point I can honestly say the ball room for the
Keynotes was standing room only and the team did an amazing job. At the
Partners Roundhouse on Tuesday evening it was packed, there were folks 5
deep to look at VMS running on HP Blades and a variety of Integrity
Servers. There were over 185 sessions and we added 4 based on customer
request during the week.

Also as you read some of our Partner news and quotes on other web sites
its very interesting to see who some of our customers are. Also of note
is the Parsec Operating System IQ test (see 6.5).

All URLs work, they may wrap so please check before sending me email.

Warm Regards as always,
Sue

Did you know that openvms.org was in three languages, French, Dutch and
Italian? There is also an article with blogs from the boot camp along
with attendee quotes. 

3.2 Golden Eggs - This is one of my favorite parts of openvms.org - If
you are new Golden Eggs is a configuration library done voluntarily by
Matti Patari, Helsinki Finland. He has done some amazing work including

5.0 The National Computer Museum at Bletchley Park

From: Kevin Murrell [kevin_AT_tnmoc_DOT_org]
The National Computer Museum at Bletchley Park in the UK run their web
accessible retro operating systems on an OpenVMS host under the Hobbyist
programme.
SIMH is used to simulate hardware for running several early Digital
operating systems, such as OS8, RT11 and RSTS. It was important for the
museum to able to provide a secure and resilient system for computer
historians and scientists - the system manager at the museum, Kevin
Murrell, said he wouldn't consider putting a system on the web, and
offering open logins, unless he was sure both the server and their
internal business systems were absolutely secure.
The system runs on an Alpha Server 800. The museum has several earlier
machines running VMS include a VAX 750 and a MicroVAX 3. The retro O/S
emulation machine can be accessed via http://retrobeep.no-ip.org and is
available 24/7.

6.0 From our Partners:

of automated job scheduling as the pre-eminent job scheduler for
Windows, AIX, OpenVMS, HPUX, Linux, Solaris and Tru64 UNIX.

7.0 Press Release - Legacy Technologies Releases SecurityGuard for
Itanium
Legacy Technologies Releases SecurityGuard for Itanium
The most powerful security product offered on the OpenVMS platform ---
now available on Itanium.

Spanish Fork, UT - October 1, 2006 -- Legacy Technologies, LLC the
leader in Security Software for the OpenVMS platform, announced today
that the most powerful security product available for OpenVMS,
SecurityGuard, is now available for Itanium.

Security Guard augments the security that is inherent in OpenVMS. The
software does not seek to replace security features built into the
operating system, but rather adds security to existing areas not
protected. It contains three separate security products (AUDIT,
INTRUDER ALERT, and KBLOCK) that when combined make up the SecurityGuard
product, the most powerful Security tool available for Itanium.

*Audit enhances native security by providing terminal session
logging, audit trail reduction, analysis, and reporting, not otherwise
available on OpenVMS systems. 

*Intruder Alert provides real-time intrusion detection and
response capabilities, which enable administrators to proactively
manage computing environment security.

*KBLock enhances native OpenVMS Security for VAX/Alpha and
Itanium, by providing easily implemented protections to unattended
active terminals. Such functionality is not otherwise available in
standard OpenVMS environments.
