Hi, that story is already old; MRC presented it as the Tops-20 V4.2. That software never has been found. But if the real problem is Tops20 on Decnet, a KLH10 from Ken Harrenstein runs Tops20-7.1 on a 4 MW KL10 processor in a Linux environment ant cooperates with Simh Vax, Pdp11 Rsx11MP46, Rsts-E-10.1L and other Pdp10 systems though Ethernet/sync line router systems. Works like a charm. Same thing holds for Tops10-705 on Klh10 with Ethernet functionality
