[HECnet] Re: Thursby TSSnet

[Supratim Sanyal]

Thank you very much, John. 1.915 (MACOS7) is now on HECnet using "TSSnet 
V2.4.0-MacIIci V7.5.5" on Basilink II emulated Macintosh IIci running 
MacOS System 7.5.5.

Also talking DECnet (and classic AppleTalk) with my other emulated 1.570 
(MACOS9) SheepShaver Power Mac with Pathworks for Macintosh.

All good so far!

Thanks again,

Supratim
