You confused me here...VMS/CMS????  A vax would run VMS yes, but maybe I 
am out of touch but I doubt it runs VMS/CMS...I doubt that OS even exists!

Do you mean IBM's VM/CMS??  That is what I think you mean, especially with 
talk of minidisks and such.  If so, forget it.  That info is stored on a 
read only minidisk, you may be able to read it(I doubt it) but you will 
never be able to write anything to it.

VM/CMS is worthless IMHO, I used it for a bit and hated every second of 
it.  Really nothing to do with it unless you love mainframes.  As for VMS, 
don't mess with that much but can find out for you.  Tell me the exact 
version and exact OS.

The only fun thing VM/CMS had(and I think it was fixed) was one annoying 
"security" feature where if you tried to login incorrectly as someone more 
than three times it shut their account down.

There was pandemonium at our uni after the Computer Sci geeks got hold of 
that info...;)
