Sounds like you've got more of a personnel than a technical issue. VMS
has had SSH for several years now, and if your IT people haven't tried
converting their users over to it (or haven't upgraded the OS in ages),
they're asking to get cracked. Maybe they already are and don't know
it. Complain to the IT managers.
Believe me, Chris, I've done quite a lot of complaining.
VMS is definitely old and proprietary and could maybe be considered
niche, but is hardly obsolete.
It depends on what you mean by "obsolete." Compare it to Linux in terms
of available software programs. Yes, it's a problem for me that VMS
doesn't run anything I want to run.
I actually had someone from HP tell me quite arrogantly, "If you want R to
run on OpenVMS, why don't you just port R to OpenVMS yourself?" And quit
my day job? I don't think so.
