I stepped into a HP3000 / HP9000 environment w/ 0 MPE, Unix, COBOL, etc. background -- & have learned more about the HP3000 from the seemingly omniscient & generous members of this list than any other source (enough to survive). I of course naively assume similar people & lists exist out there for other systems ... maybe not all, but at least the HP9000? I'm looking for a list address for HP9k if anyone has one. FWIW, The specific HP9k issue at hand is: recent activity on one of our HP9k's (D210) by others with Root access has caused ?? to be added to the system... I have a good FBACKUP that I can restore to, but I'm under the impression that I need to blow away the volume set, reinstall the OS, then FRESTORE... all just to make sure the xtra ?? stuff gets removed (otherwise, just FRESTORE) I wouldn't mind getting feedback from a similarly competent & generous bunch of hp9k'ers before going forward (& getting stuck...) Any help ?(& sorry about the waste of quality bandwidth) Steve
