The answer to this can be kinda complex, depending on what you're trying to do exactly.
The short answer may be that dhcp client on OpenVMS OS is not available yet. On my systems I configure the router to assign dhcp addresses above the x.x.x.100, and then I set my OpenVMS systems to be static...
First and foremost, check that you are executing the initial startup after any dependent network protocols (e.g., after TCP/IP if it uses that).
It is usually considered a bad idea to put indefinite loops in the SYSTARTUP_xxx.com procedure. It would probably be a better idea to have a batch...
If it's SYMBOLS that you want to have available after login, then SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM will not be the correct place to execute this procedure/script.
You need to add this execution in the appropriate place in the SYS$STARTUP:SYLOGIN.COM procedure - assuming that you are executing that procedure...
If you merely want to be able to run DCL under Windows NT/2000, rather than actually run a virtual VMS machine, you might check out XLNT.

To properly answer this, we'd need to know the OS version, and the TCP/IP version.
Off-hand, I don't recall if the tcp product can support load-balancing (haven't had a need to set it up, but you could always consult the documentation).
In any case, you can't give both NICs the same tcp/ip...
What TCP/IP product are you using on your system? What HP printer do you have? How is the queue setup on the system?
(need result of SHOW QUE/FULL on that queue, as well as the entry information in the printcap file if it's TCP/IP based).
Also, what kind of file are you sending to the printer...
If you go to Amazon and search on 'VMS' you'll find lots of books.
But don't forget to check out the OpenVMS website from HP:

All you wanted to know about OpenVMS, including the full documentation set (which has a pretty good users guide, unlike most other...
