Do you have DECnet for RT-11?

Zane



I don't, but the bits must be around.  I certainly ran RT-11 DECnet in real 
life.   It's rather amazing that it fit.

We certified TOPS-10 DECnet against it.  NML, NFT, DAP, EVL and the rest of the 
stack...

I'm sure someone else on the list has the bits.
I’ve spent the last 18 years trying to find someone that has a copy of DECnet 
for RT-11.

Then I mis-remembered.    I thought someone on the list reported running
it.  18 years ago I could have put my hands on a copy fairly easily :-(

I know several people have asked for it. I have no idea where to find it either. Well, actually, maybe I do, but I have not tried...

I'll try to look through the stuff that I sent to CHM if I get out there
later this year.  It didn't include RT-11 intentionally, but there might
be a copy from the lab where we did DECnet certification against
TOPS-10.  I sent a room full of tapes there, but they haven't all been
converted to tape files on disk, and I don't have all of those that have.

I don't know what the current licensing story is - I believe RT went to
Mentec - but the first step is finding the bits.

Correct. It all went to Mentec Inc, and when Mentec folded, it was bought by XX2247, who is the current owner. I haven't asked/investigated, but it's quite possible that XX2247 do have DECnet for RT-11. They certainly have RT-11 itself, I'm sure.

I *am* sure that RSX runs DECnet on SimH - Jordi configured an RSX
system for me to test against when I did the KDP emulation.  And I have
those bits.  RSTS also runs, but I didn't keep them.

Yes. RSX works just fine with DECnet. Under simh, other emulators, or real hardware... And so does TCP/IP.
