How hard is getting DECNET to run on these though?


Easy as pie on TOPS-20.

It's not hard in Ultrix either.   It's a case of:
1). Install ULTRIX
2). Install DECnet tools
3). Run the DECnet configuration script

You'll need a license for Ultrix...but those are easy to acquire.   It's the same LMF format as used in Tru64.

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


the PANDA distribution of TOPS-20 work OOTB.

Anyone got a working image / HOWTO on getting this going?


Ultrix isn't hard to get running.   I can toss an image up somewhere sometime soon.
