Dave,

  That was the conclusion I was coming to, just trying to edit the 
system parameters to get to DecWindows or TCP/IP networking running is 
such a pain. I can't even get EDT to behave sensibly.

  For now I have plugged a terminal into the "Printer" port and can sign 
onto VMS that way, and so get a more "normal" VMS session.
