Certificates
The job checking whether certificates need to be renewed does it job: No issues on the secured sites, but still on the main one. Will have top ask, because otherwise the expected https-connection will not work properly… It is weird because it has worked before, but it may be related to changes in eiter WASD_ONFIG_AUTH or WASD_CONFIG_MAP – but these have been minimal. Or WASD_CONFIG_SERVICE ma have a bad spec? It seems Ok, though…
CIFS
Required for the new development environment using NXTWARE: The old PWS (Daphne) is set up to be the scapegoat for testing, and Java and GNV are now both installed – but the product requires Samba (CIFS) as well to access the files to handle. IO have versions 1.1 in my store, but the latest I know of to be available is version 1.2 – ECO1. To locate the download site proved a search for several hours, and once found, it leads to a location of which the browsers tell me it does not exist. Or is unreachable. asked at on forum at HPE but got no reply (yet).
Asked on the OpenVMS SIG and got a reply within minutes: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/openvms/private/CIFS/. Use that URL in Chrome, because Edge won’t find it:
Hmmm…can’t reach this page
Try thisMake sure you’ve got the right web address: ftp://ftp.hp.com Search for “ftp://ftp.hp.com” on Bing Refresh the page Details
Error Code: INET_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND
and using a tool like FileZille won’t find this CIFS folder on the site.
Anyway, got the files now, for both Alpha and Itanium. so I’ll install then somewhere this week.
