I'm running it in a VM (VirtualBox) - is this going to work?


Yes.   Just add mutiple NICs for it.   VirtualBox can do up to 4 iirc.   Have one for accessing the host and dedicate a second one to TOPS-20.

Got some spare cycles/RAM on one of my boxes, would be fun to run TOPS-20 or Ultrix with DECNET?

Anyone got a working image / HOWTO on getting this going?
For TOPS-20, you can enable DECNET in the panda distribution with not too much effort. I tried to explain how to do it here:

The main problem is the network setup. You will have to work in shared mode and it can wreck the host machine NIC.
