:    "Listings of system files & their protections are available on Compact
:    Disc".
   That phrasing is poor, or the quote lacks sufficient context.
   For the source listings, one must order the OpenVMS Source Listings
   CD-ROM.  See the low-numbered notes for the SSB contact information.
   
   One can look at the protections on various OpenVMS distributions for
   the typical file protections -- see the C2 appendix for additional
   information -- present on the files.  The bootable OpenVMS Alpha
   distribution CD-ROM is another place to look.  This is possible
   on most any OpenVMS distribution kit, but (on OpenVMS VAX) sometimes
   one has to look inside a backup saveset.

    I thought that one of the manuals (yeah, I don't remember) actually
    had an appendix that listed what files should exist. Whether it is up
    to date I don't know.
