and if you setup file shares instead of disk shares, you could set protections from the server side a lot more granularly and reliably using ACL's than people thought.

A VAX had to be tpretty badly beat up if I couldn't coax it into life.

we had a DEC training course taught on-site a while back. they had lent me a VAX4000-60 desktop VAX to play with, which I promptly claimed as me own. Well, they reclaimed it for the course, but I had rendered it unbootable - unless you knew what I had changed. it eventually was returned to me (hee hee!)

only time I ever recall a VAX going down due to a hardware problem -- an airflow sensor malfunctioned on a 6000-320, and it shut itself down. the air was flow was fine, the sensor broke. lost one node in three node cluster. (*yawn*)

and that's in the 10+ years that we were primarily VAX in the data center.
