2. We also use it because it allows our customer's users to do automatic login without a password from a PC by checking the TCPIP addresses. We can't do that with HP TCPIP because HP also puts port info in the string that is authenticated by ALF.

Re: Why uise multinet ?
Though I don't recall details, back in the old days (early 90's?) it offered some functionality that wasn't readily available in UCX. I suspect that this is much less the case today.
It was also a HUGE improvement over Network Research's Fusion TCP/IP, which was what we'd started out with.

Re: Why uise multinet ?
Early UCX was also very primitive compared to Multinet or TCPware. Once UCX started coming bundled, though, the only reason to go to something else was if UCX was missing a feature you needed.

So, for example, IPSEC is available now in Multinet, but as I understand it still some ways off in TCP/IP Services. Also, a lot of people like the Multinet management interface better.
Having said all this, TCP/IP Services is certainly adequate for many purposes and is getting better all the time.

Re: Why uise multinet ?
Now obviously TCPIP has evolved as the
standard, so you can be sure it is a focus of VMS engineering and elevations.
At one time Digital focused on DECNET. I miss it. However, even the collection of tcpip products is evolving because of security concerns. TCPIP is right with the transition.
I'm sure other companies make fine products.

Re: Why uise multinet ?
We used Multinet at a previous job, it had all the "bells and whistles" at the time and worked very well.
We currently use TCPware here ... IMHO it's as good as Multinet but personally I find it easier to manage, and I still think it's better than TCPIP Services YMMV.
Cheers,
Art

Re: Why uise multinet ?
Those that say that UCX is "free" are wrong. It's not free. It merely happens that the latest incarnation of what was NAS happens to be included in the price of your hardware. Sell the hardware to someone else, the license doesn't get transferred. The software license is merely included in the price for your convenience.
A niggly but important differentiation!

How's that for going back a few years!

Re: Why uise multinet ?
Multinet does DECNET Phase IV over TCPIP
<<<
It should be noted, however, that you need a DECnet Routing license (DVNETRTG), instead of your ordinary DVNETEND to use that feature.
(To be taken with a grain of salt - I'm not in the office right now).
