Tim, It would be nice to know where the Linux-DECnet package sources end up. I have an update to Version 1.3 for the libvaxdata library that is included in the Linux-DECnet package. (Do not use the one on the web page, https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2005/1424—it has not been updated for some reason.) Once in a great while I do try to update the Linux I use for DECnet. At that point, I have to fix the Linux kernel drivers. (The Linux-DECnet package is just the utilities and libraries, not the drivers.) That FAL-to-NFS gateway, for example, is usable for standalone backups and restores of VAXes and Alphas. Real VAXes and Alphas. It is probably not that big a deal for SIMH VAXes.
