I unpacked that decnet46 tape image with BRU, and did netgen with that.  I get an endnode, I missed the fact it didn't ask me if I wanted something else.  So how would I get a router instead?

I supplied the addresses and vectors to match what SIMH has, but at network startup I get a complaint about the DMC-0 vector:

>NCP SET SYS
NTL -- DMC Template -- Vector 320 Not Available
	.INT1	$$DMC
NTL -- DMC Template -- Vector 324 Not Available
	.INT2	$$DMC
NTINIT -- Failed To Load Line DMC-0 
>ASN =XX:
>NCP SET EXE STA ON

As far as I can tell nothing else uses that vector.  It's happy with DMC-1 (vector 330).

Also, I can't get CFE to set my nearby node names: 

CFE>def nod 41.1 name python
CFE -- Name Node Server QIO failed, Function=IO.WND, I/O Status=205

Does it matter that I specified that name during netgen?  But I also gave it MIM and that's defined just fine.
