Skip the 'mkdir' step.  Assuming /export/vax2000 is the '/' of your VAX
you could do the following:
	# dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/vax2000/.swap bs=4k count=4k
	# chmod 700 /export/vax2000/.swap
	(or on the vax use 'of=/.swap' though that will be _slow_)

Then in /export/vax2000/etc/fstab (or /etc/fstab on the vax) add:
	/.swap none swap sw 0 0

You will now do 'swapon /.swap', or 'swapctl -A' or reboot to enable the
new swap space.
I prefer using '/.swap' rather than just "/swap" or a "swap" on some other
mount point.  Then it doesn't always show up in 'ls' and it is using the
same mount as the root filesystem.
