Hi all,<br>

I have an unused VM running here in Austria. It has a fixed IP. When there is a need for I could spin up a SimH instance with RSX and let it play the router game....<br>

I have listeners waiting on 0.0.0.0. Yes, MULTINET does not seem to care <br>
what address connections come in from. For example:<br>
<br>
$ multinet set /decnet /remote=0.0.0.0 /port=60005 /device=tcpa6: <br>
/tcp=listen /buffers=24<br>
<br>
Watching this thread with interest, I would like to know too if dynamic <br>
IP clients work transparently with MULTINET/VMS.<br>
