    That really opens it up. ;)   Simh emulates several platforms for which
there are DECnet implementations:

    PDP-8: there's a DECnet implementation for OS/8.
    PDP-10: TOPS-10, TOPS-20
    PDP-11: RSTS/E, RSX-11/M/M+
    VAX: VMS, Ultrix

The PDP-8 DECnet is actually for RTS-8, and not OS/8. However, it's also only PHASE II, so I think we could rule that one out.
For PDP-11, I think that there was also some kind of DECnet for RT-11. And you have IAS, as well as (probably) RSX-11D.
Also, I wonder if VAXELN also had DECnet? And isn't there some sort of Alpha in simh as well nowadays?
