This document describes the required steps to install Lynx on VMS systems which use the CMU TCP/IP package. The interface to CMU is implemented via Mike O'Malley's excellent LIBCMU socket library for VMS. It is not included in the Lynx distribution as it is quite large and freely available from: ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/vms-libcmu/ckvlcmu.hex This is a hexified version of the LIBCMU.BCK saveset. All LIBCMU files (library and include files) are assumed to be in the CMUIP_ROOT:[SYSLIB] directory. Ensure the following LIBCMU files are placed appropriately on your system: cmuip_root:[syslib]ioctl.h cmuip_root:[syslib]libcmu.olb Beyond this, follow the same INSTALLATION procedures that you would for any VMS Lynx compilation. REMAINING PROBLEMS: At this time, the FTP Lynx code does not appear to work; it is believed that this problem is due to an as of yet unresolved problem with the LIBCMU 1.2 library. The getsockname routine returns all zeros for the local address portion and results in the system sending an invalid PORT command to the remote end. Telnet, tn3270 and rlogin support are not yet implemented. Andy Harper A.Harper@bay.cc.kcl.ac.uk
