There is probably some packet manager in there, which you can request to

Hmmmm... Houston, we have a problem. Where do I get "pcap"?
Depending on your distribution you should be able to do a
yum install libpcap-devel
or
apt-get install libpcap-dev
or something similar
Actually on my old debian system it's called libpcap0.8-dev
but it should be available in there somewhere.

Great!
I would like to be assigned two node numbers and reserve two node names:
KAHEA Linux DECnet
LANI TOPS-20 on KLH-10 emulator
and I understand that running a bridge on Linux my best bet is to
join your area 1.
Yes, that would be the easiest. I'm setting up 1.500 for KAHEA and 1.501 for LANI.

I've created a simple DCL script that will allow me to maintain a simple
list of the Multinet tunnels and a DNS name. The script will do an NSLOOKUP
on the name to figure out the corresponding IP and then re-configure the
Multinet connections accordingly. Like the bridge program, this isn't
automatic and you'll have to send me an email when your IP changes to remind
me to re-run this script. And since changing the destination IP requires
turning the circuit off and then restarting it, any existing connections on
that circuit (including any that are routed thru you) will be broken. Given
the fairly low level of usage on HECnet, that doesn't seem like a big
problem.
If you already have a Multinet connection to LEGATO with a static IP, then
you can just ignore this message. Nothing will change for you.

Maybe I should point out that for the bridge program, all you need to do is send it a HUP signal, and it will redo the name lookups. However, there is always a possibility that the old resolving information is still cached somewhere, so that you won't the to the new address right away anyhow. How long the delay depends on how the name server and domains are set up.
But if someone have a dynamic IP, but it changes fairly seldom, it usually works acceptable anyway, so having a dynamic IP address isn't neccesarily the end of it all.

Yup. Sorry about that, but there isn't really much we can do about it. :-(

Looks like that will be my project for this weekend. Good excuse to get my DECServer 90M hooked up to the console port, too. I'll get the license process underway tonight so I'm ready ...
Will send another message to the list once I'm up and running with Multinet. As far as the e-mail with new IP address goes, I could whack together a batch job on OpenVMS or cron job on one of the Linux boxen that will keep an eye on things and check every so often, and e-mail the address you specify Bob when the address changes.
