Just wondering if anyone has tried the DECnet router I wrote recently? I
released a second version shortly after announcing it, and I have been using
it in my own environment ever since.

Hello!
Not as yet. I've been trying out as a thought experiment several
ideas. So far they all ended up getting lost in Colossal Cave. (Yes
the same one from the original Adventure game.) Which means sadly I
won't be able to get anything to work for a while.

I can safely state however that the source code for your second
version builds properly on Slackware 13.37 (X86) Linux which is what I
run. As it happens -14.0 has come out from them, and it is also
available for both ARM (all known devices including R.PI) and X86
ones.

Upgrading to a new release in Linux is almost an issue for me.....
