Miguel thinks the CD is mythical. I agree with him, no one seems to have
ever seen it. Miguel also sent me a copy of a utility that he had tried to
use in the past.

Peter pointed me to http://www.bbc.com/vbackup.htm This is a commercial
site that sells migration tools.

Jim suggested I look for 'vmsbackup' instead. He, too, sent me a copy of a
utility he had used. An AltaVista search for vmsbackup turned up a lot of
interesting things. I dl'ed a version from a site in Finland but it looks
to be VAX specific.

No joy yet but a lot of good suggestions. Thanks to all!
