Hello!
Actually both of us were.


You both might be interested in ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/networking/bitnet/ then.

And yes, there are (or were) a few IBM operating systems who spoke NJE.

Sampsa,

You were interested in HECnet<----->BITNET stuff, right?   I stumbled upon
some BITNET NJE stuff that seems to know about VMS.

If I can get this to work with more point-to-point links, I might be able to
get hobbyist IBM mainframe stuff linked to HECnet through the aide of BITNET
NJE and UNIX/VMS.
