now that i've signed up for this list I have forgotten what the topic is?

I am a disabled veteran, I do some work with Linux as a hobby, and some 
web sites, also as
a hobby.  I may be getting a Vaxstation soon.  I don't think is one of 
the ones supported by
Linux yet.

Richard, in that case you might prefer to switch to the TUHS mailing list:
http://minnie.tuhs.org/mailman/listinfo/tuhs

PUPS is mainly for PDP-11s, TUHS is for other old boxen that run Unix.

Mind you, a lot of people are subscribed to both!

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Warren?! How do I go about subscribing to the PUPS list? I was not aware
that you host both there, and only found out about just the one.

AFAIK the only "old" unix that runs on a VAXstation is Ultrix. 
None of the CSRG BSD releases runs on (non-QBus) VAXstations.
If you want a "new" Unix on your VAXstation, go with NetBSD:
http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/vax/
(I think Linux will never run well on VAXen. OpenBSD/vax works, 
but still needs some improvement.) 

And don't forget: There is always the dark side of the force: VMS. ;-)
