I really don't know much about VAX/VMS except for some limited DCL 
programming and certain system admin. programs (authorize, ncp, etc) but I 
have access to some very important machines that are running VAX/VMS and I 
would like to know how to get the most out of each system. Under unix it 
is rather simple but VMS appears to be a different story altogher. Maybe I 
am wrong. What should I look for on VMS Systems? Do ppl still write 
patches for them? Do VMS hackers go thru the work of learning MACRO-32?
What about encrypt/compare for sysuaf.dat? What about patches for set 
host, etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for someone 
with a good deal of experience with VMS that I can share these findings 
with in return for information and findings on the system. Anyone filling 
the bill leave me mail with you e-mail address....

No flames please, I am a big boy now. Flaming is lame.
