Maybe I was wrong earlier this year when I thought that
"bqt"'s email system was rejecting ntl - maybe simply
mentioning his name is enough. Let's hope I've been
sufficiently circumspect to get through :-)

My recollection is that it's too
big for email, so I can ftp it to you if you have
an ftp site somewhere.

The SCSI one is Alpha only (and may be too new to be in
the handbook anyway). DEMNA certainly works on VAX, as
does CIXCD (although you may need VAX-firmware vs Alpha-firmware
for that one ... I don't recall).
