I have been trying to get vdk to work with no success.  For what it's worth,
the version I have has a README file (actually unshared as vdk.doc) that
was last modified in January of 1987.  The first problem was that setting
globvec = 0xffffffff in devs/mountlist didn't work.  I got an unrecognized
keyword error on globvec.  So I took it out and did another ^AA.  This time
every thing went smoothly in that the mount vdk: command in startup-sequence
caused no errors.  It also didn't creat a vdk: device!  At least I couldn't
find it if it did.  Nothing showed up when I did a df and I couldn't cd to
it.  I never use workbench, but I don't think it would have shown up there 
either.  If anyone has any clues as to what I'm doing wrong, I'd appreciate
the info.  Also, are there any recommendations on other rrd's?  And where
does one obtain copies?  Thanx all.
