DECNET is available under RSX-11M and RSTS/E on PDP-11s, Tops-10 and TOPS-20
on PDP-10s, and under VMS (and possibly Ultrix, I don't remember for certain)
on VAXen, and on VMS follow-on systems. It is as far as possible agnostic
about what kind of system it was running on or connecting to.
DECnet/Ultrix, yes. There is also a limited DECnet for RT-11, and for DOS.
And VAXELAN. And possibly IAS, I don't remember that one for sure.
Both IAS and RSX-11D (essentially the same code) were Phase II only.
There was also a
Phase II implementation for OS/8 but I seem to remember it being
cancelled fairly early
in the Phase II schedule.
I thought IAS and -11D made it to phase III, but I can't find any
evidence either way now that I'm looking.
I have DECNET-8. It's not for OS/8 but for RTS-8. But yes, it is phase
II. I have never tried it, though. So I don't know how/if it actually
works, and I don't have any phase II or phase III nodes to test against.
