              Digital Equipment Corporation is pleased to provide the
              session support utility SSU Version 2.0 for OpenVMS[TM]
              Systems. SSU software is a product that you can use to
              log in to and maintain multiple independent sessions
              on OpenVMS VAX[TM] and OpenVMS AXP[TM] systems. You can
              use SSU software with Digital's multisession terminals,
              such as the VT330[TM], VT340[TM], and VT420[TM] video
              terminals. SSU software communicates with the single-line,
              multisession firmware in the video terminal.

              A License Product Authorization Key (License PAK) is
              required for you to install and use the SSU product. With
              the purchase of a license for the product, you receive a
              PAK. You must use the License Management Facility (LMF)
              to register and load this License PAK before installing
              the product. For more information on the LMF, refer to the
              OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual.

              Digital recommends that you read the release notes before
              you start the installation. For instructions, see the
              Session Support Utility Installation and User's Guide for
              OpenVMS Systems.

              For additional information on the SSU Version 2.0 product
              and license, refer to the Software Product Description
              (SPD) (27.79.03). For product hardware and software
              requirements, refer to the System Support Addendum (SSA)
