If a pyDECnet node could implement a FAL server to share a directory and/or offer a way to copy files to/from other nodes over DECnet, that would be really cool. I think it could make a very nice option for moving files between DECnet nodes and modern systems without needing to wrestle with Linux DECnet drivers or install TCP/IP on the DECnet nodes. I don't know how hard it would be to implement, or if there's any way I could contribute.

Yes, I'm planning to do that at some point.  DAP is a rather large protocol and it assumes RMS, which is another kettle of fish.
