First of all thanks for all your suggestions. You have helped me a lot!

Then I must point out that the working combination, on the AlphaServer
400 with OSF UNIX is '^P'. Pressing it many times finally has given to
me the
prompt >>>. No way with '^C'.

Another interesting thing is about the Halt button on such a station: on
the manual it is written that "it can be configured has an Halt/Reset
button using an internal jumper. See appendix C for details". OK let's
go to appendix C.
An effectively there is indicated a jumper for the setting of the front
panel button but here it said:
"position between pins 0-1 -> reset"
"position between pins 1-2 -> not supported" ugh

But now I am not succeeding however to put the thing to work!

please, follow the disscussion with the subj:
"kloadserv error?"

thanks again
