[HECnet] Re: DECnet kit for RT-11

[Steve Davidson]

Zane,

I have been able to find only half the kit.   It is installed on my Pro however.
DEC only made the one kit - the Pro was never included or excluded to my
knowledge.   When I joined the RT-11 group DECnet on RT-11 was cancelled within
a week of my start date.   I had hoped to work on that project, but that never
came to be.   The XC "handler" (driver) is the 10M interface on the Pro.   It was
written by Marty Gentry just before DECnet's cancellation.

Do you have the DECnet kit for RT-11, or is this a version specific 
to the Pro-380?

I have an ULTRIX kit, but no license.   I also have Digital UNIX but again no

I am working on getting a PRO-380 (RT-11) w/DECnet to talk to HECnet.   The
DECNA has died a horrible death but the com port may be a possibility.
