Installation under VMS

To install under VMS, get the save set, WWW.BCK, and unwrap it with the command

$ BACKUP WWW.BCK/SAV [...]

(or else copy the files from a system you know has them). To set up the commands, put the command

$ @[...]SETUP into your LOGIN.COM, or the system SYLOGIN.COM. This command file assumes you have left all the distributed files in the same directory as itself.

Home page

Under VMS, the home page may be defined using the logical name WWW_HOME. You should define this to be the full address of the document which you want to be displayed when www is invoked without parameters. For example, $ DEFINE/SYSTEM WWW_HOME "file://myvax/sys$library/default.html" Users may of course override the system logical name with their own.
