	Digital UNIX
		Digital Unix (DUNIX) was the final name of the Unix variant developed to run on computers produced by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC).
		Later DEC computers, such as their VAX systems were also popular platforms to run Unix on, the first port to VAX was in 1978 (the VAX was only released in October 1977).
		Following the acquisition of DEC by Compaq, Digital Unix was renamed Tru64.

	[No title]
		The Digital Porting Assistant (available for Digital UNIX 3.2, and shipped as part of the developer's toolkit on Digital UNIX 4.0) is a graphical environment which aids in the porting process.
		In Digital UNIX V4.0 and later, it is possible to rebuild the kernel to support approximately microsecond resolution from the gettimeofday(2) system call, and from the various library routines that use this system call.
		Digital's plans for the future development of Digital UNIX are fully under Digital's control, and our plans for a fully SPEC 1170 compliant version, UNIX clusters, and other leading commercial enhancements are on course.

	Tru64 UNIX Year 2000 Readiness
		DIGITAL UNIX Version 4.0D has been available since January 19, 1998 and provides a Year 2000-ready environment for customers as they prepare for the turn of the century.
		DIGITAL UNIX Version 4.0D, including all system components and packaged layered products (see list in Compaq Layered Products), has gone through an extensive evaluation to ensure that dates are handled and represented properly for the year 2000 and beyond.
		DIGITAL UNIX Version 4.0D, and later releases of DIGITAL UNIX and Tru64 UNIX, are warranted to be Year 2000 ready.

	The UNIX System -- History and Timeline -- UNIX History
		Soon all the large vendors, and many smaller ones, were marketing their own, diverging, versions of the UNIX system optimized for their own computer architectures and boasting many different strengths and features.
		Customers found that, although UNIX systems were available everywhere, they seldom were able to interwork or co-exist without significant investment of time and effort to make them work effectively.
		Throughout the early and mid-1980's, the debate about the strengths and weaknesses of UNIX systems raged, often fuelled by the utterances of the vendors themselves who sought to protect their profitable proprietary system sales by talking UNIX systems down.

	IM053 Digital Unix and Oracle7: Recipes for Disaster
		Digital support concurred with us that the likely problem was the KZPSA A09 firmware (the common element and indicated by bus resets showing with uerf), but offered no resolution other than trying to escalate getting us a copy of A10.
		Digital's response was there was likely a faulty pc-telnet implementation causing this, but we saw it in at least three common telnet implementations (on both pc's and mac's).
		Digital is improving on cycling patches to all supported releases, but don't be caught as the first one with a new release.

	Tru64 UNIX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is unusual among common commercial UNIX implementations in being built on the Mach kernel, sharing this characteristic with NeXTSTEP, MkLinux, and Mac OS X.
		In 1988, during the so-called "Unix wars", DEC joined with IBM, Hewlett-Packard, and others to form the Open Software Foundation (OSF) to develop a version of Unix to compete with System V Release 4 from ATandT and Sun Microsystems.
		After Compaq's purchase of DEC in early 1998, with the release of version 4.0F, Digital UNIX was renamed to Tru64 UNIX to emphasise its 64-bit-clean nature and de-emphasise the Digital brand.

	ULTRIX to DIGITAL UNIX Migration
		You can mount an ULTRIX File System (UFS) on a DIGITAL UNIX system, provided the file system is created with an 8 kB block size and there are partition tables on the disk.
		Configuring shared memory on a DIGITAL UNIX system is done in the same way as on an ULTRIX system, by editing the configuration file and rebuilding the kernel.
		The DIGITAL UNIX internationalization features allow you to receive messages and give input in your native language, even when you are in single-user mode.
