OK,

         I guess I just can't navigate the True 64 doc site. I looked
there first and did not see it. Most people sent me there. Other
suggested looking at the 5.1A associated products 2 CD in a separate manual
called
TruCluster Server Cluster Lan Interconnect. I don't have a copy of 5.1A
yet, so I can't look there.

         The web link is

http://tru64unix.compaq.com/docs/cluster_doc/cluster_51A/HTML/ARP7CATE/TITLE.HTM

         Everyone who replied that have set on up this way stated that it
was pretty simple and worked well.

         Dr. Thomas P. Blinn made the great suggestion of waiting for the
first patch kit as this version is still a little buggy.

         thanks to:
