    Excellent.

      Hmm ok.   Do you know if the RSX distribution of DTR-11 run under
RSTS/E's RSX RTS?   I don't have an operational RSX-11 system here. (yet)

I very much doubt it would work. DTR is playing some pretty low level
tricks, including having multiple tasks and interprocess communication
under RSX.

    Yuck.

:-)

And unfortunately I don't have any leads to DTR-11 for RSTS/E. I assume
it did exist?

    I'm not certain; I've never worked with it.   I'm willing to bet that
it did, though.

Just did a check in the wayback machine, and apparently at least Mentec did not sell it. Anyone know if it did exist?

      Oh ok, thank you.   I'd love to have it just as a text file that I can
massage into my various machines here.   One line per entry would be best
for me.   Is that doable on your end without any trouble?

Might already have that (more or less).
MIM::US:[DECNET]FIX.CMD have all the nodes except MIM herself. One per
line, in a format that is usable for NCP (or CFE in RSX).

    Ok.   Slight chicken/egg problem, though...what's the node address of MIM?

*The* most important machine on HECnet... And it's not already in your database... Tsk... :-)
