[HECnet] MS Kermit DECNET stack? How?

[Sampsa Laine]

Oh, so maybe the SuperLAT driver is some black magic that MS KERMIT uses to talk to the Windows driver - ugly but kinda cool...

St. Louis, MO, December 1, 1997-
Meridian Technology Corporation announces the release of Version 2.0
of SuperLAT Gateway, a product that connects Windows NT-based networks
and Digital LAT networks.

Version 2.0 of SuperLAT Gateway is most appropriate for organizations
integrating Windows NT into a Digital LAT environment or those
eliminating their Digital VMS or UNIX systems entirely. It allows
LAT-based computers and peripheral devices to be used from an NT-based
network, as well as NT-based printers to be used from a LAT network.
New connectivity options let organizations preserve their hardware and
software investments by increasing the flexibility with which existing
computing resources may be used.

(etc etc)...

Gentlemen, I was playing with MS Kermit 3.15 today (don't ask), and discovered it supports a rather amazing number of networking protocols including DECNET and something called "SuperLAT" - anyone have any experience of connecting to a DECNET host or LAT host with this?
