I'm an IP guy, hands down. DECnet I actually have very little experience
using aside from just being a consumer of current services.

What I would like to know is how I create a program that, in IP nuances,
"listens on a port" for a client to connect.

Specifically VMS in this case.

Paul explained a little bit how it functions, but he wasn't sure how
that was done on VMS either.

Anyone have any good pointers?

That should be in the DECnet/VMS manuals, I would think.

Afraid I can't help more, except for doing what you need to do, which is just start reading through the manual set.

I could help more if we were talking RSX... ;-)
