SOFTWARE LICENSING
The VMS software is furnished under the licensing pro-
visions of Digital’s Standard Terms and Conditions.
Digital offers a separately orderable layered product
called VMS DECwindows Motif. Refer to the VMS
DECwindows Motif SPD (SPD 36.09.xx) for more in-
formation.
Integral to VMS is support for the VMS DECwindows
desktop environment, which is delivered as a compo-
nent of the VMS Operating System, requiring no sepa-
rate license.
Customers who wish to run DECwindows over TCP/IP
need only purchase the VMS/ULTRIX Connection prod-
uct media and documentation kit. A separate license
is not required. Customers who want to utilize the full
VMS/ULTRIX Connection functionality (FTP, NFS, TEL-
NET) do need to purchase a separate license. Refer to
the VMS/ULTRIX Connection System Support Adden-
dum (SSA 25.A4.xx-x) for required versions.
Please see the Third Party Licensing section in Ap-
pendix C for information regarding the Adobe licensing.
The System Integrated Products (SIPs), VAXcluster
Software (SPD 29.78.xx), DECnet–VAX (SPD 25.03.xx),
VAX Volume Shadowing (SPD 27.29.xx), and VAX RMS
Journaling (SPD 27.58.xx) are separately licensed prod-
ucts. Please refer to the appropriate product’s SPD for
more information.
