The LAT is mostly for incoming stuff, mainly a captive account on CHIMPY.

Just don't try using llogin towards an RSX host... There are bugs in the lat implementation as well. It causes connections to be dropped if connecting to RSX (for example). And when they are dropped, some bug in the RSX LAT code is triggered, causing the buffers to be lost forever, meaning you run out of memory after a while if you use the Linux LAT package towards RSX.

Well it worked for about 3 logons. It's borked again.

Too bad nobody is maintaining the Linux DECNET packages anymore.

I noticed a while back that incoming CTERM connections to PYFFLE:: (my Waffle BBS clone written in Python, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_(BBS_software) ) weren't working.

So I reinstalled DECNET-Linux on the machine and it's all working again.

Happy days.
