Reading a manual for a NCD X terminal and it interestingly supports X11 over DECNET.

Anybody have much experience with this?

I ran it very briefly between a MicroVAX-II and a VAXstation-2000 a
long time ago, just to play with it.   It was neat when I got it working,
but then it dawned on me that it really wasn't any different from
running it over TCP/IP. ;)

Save that there's more information in the DECnet for authentication.
