Not that I'm one to normally defend HPE given the massacre that has recently occurred with regard to VMS info on their website, but there's some confusion going on here.  The files on the HPE site are ok; they have been provided in ZIP format for quite a while now.

The issue is that Antonio was unzipping them on a Rasperry Pi (not on the virtual VAX) and then creating an ISO-9660 of the extracted files to mount on the VAX via a virtual CD-ROM drive.  This is what is truncating the filenames, and losing the file attributes.

Ben.
