Sergey That was a big help, but I'm not there yet. I did the following
$ sudo ./ linux-tap.sh create br0 eth0 tap0 david $ sudo vax ; to start SIMH simh> ; the usual stuff simh> set xq mac=bla bla simh> att tap0 ; hooray, this is the first time this succeeded. simh> boot cpu When logged into VMS, I could PING and TELNET to LOCALHOST (and 127.0.0.1). But alas, not to my physical host. And my physical host can't see the VAX either. But I did so many things to get to this point that something else might be screwed up, so I need to reboot linux and start this drill again. Thanks for a great start!

You may find the following script helpful: http://oboguev.net/misc/linux-tap.sh.txt Usage is at the bottom or invokable as ./linux-tap.sh help
