[HECnet] SimH, Ultrix and DECnet

[Tony Blews]

I'll have a try... i'm sure to have a 5.25 drive around here somewhere.

Anyway back to the Ultrix/DECnet marlarkey. I found an image of a decnet tape, but i ran into the old PAK problem. So its installed, but won't work. Any idea on a way round this? Or should I just be content that TCP/IP works on it, and move on to something else... Linux DECnet on a Pi is high on my hitlist at the moment.

Ultrix not liking the year 2000 means you need to be preposterous, sadly.
Slightly related: while poking around in the shed looking for a spare kettle lead, I found a shrink-wrapped copy of SCO Unix on 5.25" disks and a copy of the "Unix for VMS Users" book. I've moved house 7 times in the last 20 years. Why do i keep this crap?



What version of SCO Unix...?
