[HECnet] Area 44 status

[Steve Davidson]

Sure... Try that.   You do realize that to do anything SOLAR will have to
go through SG1 then to GORVAX...   It will not be pretty (or anything
close to fast).   We can give it a try.

If the performance is unacceptable then we will have to make it an area
19 node.   Probably not what you had in mind.   The alternative is that
you run my DCL procedures on GORVAX and connect the two of them
together, then it won't matter what the area is.

Hmm, could try with L1 and if it doesn't work go for L2..No?

You will probably have to make it a router.   I'm just not

one.

Area 8, solar and bonzo.

SOLAR is the VMS box, BONZO is a WinNT4 running Pathworks.

Sampsa,

Which DECnet area will they be part of?   What will the node
name and
address be?

Steve,

I might need to set up a tunnel from my parents', I'll 
register a 
DynDNS account for the router..

Crazily enough because we're so far out in the woods a 
3G dongle + 
external directional antenna is like 2-3 faster and more
stable than
the DSL. The cool thing with Finnish mobile ISPs is that 
you get a 
real public IP address instead of some NAT'd thing like in
the UK. Of
course the latency is what it is...

My dynamic DNS entry is hilanet.no-ip.org - I need to install 
MULTINET on the VMS box though.

Only my end does.     DCL scripts work GREAT!

Multinet works with dynamic IPs now?

Send me your IP address (if static) or domain name (if

Thanks to Oleg's suggestion area 44 will be on-line
more often...
Johnny please be so kind to add AR44 (44.1023) to your
database as a
simh VAX3900 running VAX/VMS 6.1?
Woohoo!

If I survive the next two days (really bad deadline at
work) I'll
get back to hacking on tunnels with Brian, and hopefully
Area 61 will
be online shortly thereafter.   I plan to run at least one
Alpha DS10L
full-time, and likely a VAX or two as well, and then lots
of other
machines sporadically.   (PDP-11/70, DECsystem-2020,
possibly others as
I get them running)

I'd get a multinet tunnel to Steve Davidson first, mainly
as I still
haven't heard back from my ISP and things are going to
get crazy
again for a while here.
