    Would anyone out there know how to open a remote network file for
    output from Vax-C.  I have been having trouble trying to use a
    file-spec of the:
    
    	NODE"USER PASSWORD ACCT"::"STR:<DIR>NAME.EXT"

There isn't enough information here to be sure, but:  IF you are using the
VAX C I/O library (rather than doing RMS stuff directly), AND you are running
VAX C V1, this doesn't work.  (The problem is, I think, mainly due to problems
that DECnet had with STREAM files, but there are probably other things going
on.)  In VAX C V2, this should work correctly.
