[HECnet] DECnet-10 doesn't work past Nov 9 2021?

[Jason Brady]

Booted test Alpha system running OpenVMS 8.4 and set the date to 27-DEC-2022. Started DECnet Phase IV. No errors.

>From node APOLLO, no problem transferring files from the test system and displaying network info (TELL ... SHOW EXEC, etc.).

Snippet from test system NML$SERVER.LOG:

        --------------------------------------------------------
        Connect request received at 27-DEC-2022 16:29:25.54
            from remote process APOLLO::"0=JASON"
            for object "SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]NML.EXE"
        --------------------------------------------------------

Snippet from test system FAL$SERVER.LOG:

        --------------------------------------------------------
        Connect request received at 27-DEC-2022 16:26:56.85
            from remote process APOLLO::"0=JASON"
            for object "SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]FAL.EXE"
        --------------------------------------------------------

Is the above satisfactory, at least for OpenVMS Alpha? 

Regards,
Jason
