I wonder if it would be possible to apply what you've done with TOPS-20 to
TOPS-10.

Once I get it working on TOPS-20 then we can try TOPS-10. My own efforts to
install DECnet on TOPS-10 have not gone well so far though, it fails to link
after MONGEN.

Assuming you follow the installation guide and that there's no version skew, any version of TOPS-10 that supports DECnet should build and run out of the box.

If you provide the specific version & tape images, commands used and all output, we can advise.

Do note that if you are using any unsupported/customer supported modules (e.g. the DMR driver), they need to be obtained from the 'customer supported' tape/directory and added to the build files.

This communication may not represent my employer's views,
if any, on the matters discussed.
