* PRIME's mainframe capabilities permit concurrent running of RJE |
emulators, program development and production work. |
PRIME's RJE supports half-duplex, point-to-point, synchronous |
communications and operates over dial-up and dedicated lines. It is fully |
supported by the PRIMOS operating system. |
DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING TERMINAL EXECUTIVE (DPTX) |
------------------------------------------------ |
PRIME's Distributed Processing Terminal Executive (DPTX) allows users to |
construct communication networks with PRIME and IBM-compatible equipment. |
DPTX conforms to IBM 3271/3277 Display System protocols, and can be integrated |
into networks containing IBM mainframes, terminals and printers without |
changing application code or access methods and operates under the PRIMOS |
operating system. |
DPTX is compatible with all IBM 370 systems and a variety of access methods |
and teleprocessing monitors: BTAM, TCAM, VTAM, IMS/VS, CIC/VS, and TSO. They |
provide transmission speeds up to 9600 bps using IBM's Binary Synchronous |
Communications (BSC) protocol. |
DPTX is comprised of three software modules that allow PRIME systems to |
emulate and support IBM or IBM compatible 3271/3277 Display Systems. One |
module, Data Stream Compatibility (DPTX/DSC), allows the PRIME system to |
emulate the operation of a 3271 on the IBM system. This enables both terminal |
user and application programs (interactive or batch) on the PRIME System to |
reach application programs on an IBM mainframe. A second module, Terminal |
Support Facility (DPTX/TSF), allows a PRIME system to control a network of IBM |
3271/3277 devices. This enables terminal users to reach application programs |
on a PRIME computer. The third module, Transparent Connect Facility |
(DPTX/TCF), combines the functions of modules one and two with additional |
software allowing 3277 terminal users to to reach programs on a IBM mainframe, |
even though the terminal subsystem is physically connected to a PRIME system, |
which is connected to an IBM system. |
PRIMOS offers a variety of different Communication applications. Being |
able to utilize these applications to their fullest extent can make life easy |
for a Primos "enthusiast." If you're a beginner with Primos, the best way to |
learn more, as with any other system, is to get some "hands-on" experience. |
Look forward to seeing some beginner PRIMOS files in the near future. -MH |

This article will cover getting into and using NOS (Networking Operating |
System) version 2.5.2 running on a Cyber 730 computer. Cybers generally run |
this operating system so I will just refer to this environ- ment as Cyber. |
Also, Cyber is a slow and outdated operating system that is primarily used |
only for college campuses for running compilers. First off after you have |
scanned a bunch of carriers you will need to know how Cyber identifies itself. |
It goes like this: |
WELCOME TO THE NOS SOFTWARE SYSTEM. |
COPYRIGHT CONTROL DATA 1978, 1987. |

FAMILY: |
You would normally just hit return at the family prompt. Next prompt is: |
USER NAME: |
Usernames are in the format abcdxxx where a is the location of where the |
account is being used from (A-Z). the b is a grouping specifying privs and |
limits for the account- usually A-G -where A is the lowest access. Some |
examples of how they would be used in a college system: |
A = lowest access - class accounts for students |
B = slightly higher than A (for students working on large projects) |
C = Much higher limits, these accounts are usually not too hard to get and |
they will normally last a long time! Lab assistants use these. |
D = Instructors, Lecturers, Professors.. etc.. |
E = same... (very hard to get these!) |
The C and D positions are usually constant according to the groupings. |
For example, a class would have accounts ranging from NADRAAA-AZZ |
^^^ ^^^ |
These can also be digits |
There are also special operator accounts which start with digits instead of |
numbers. (ie 7ETPDOC) These accounts can run programs such as the monitor |
which can observe any tty connected to the system... |
