Not sure what you mean by that.
But the fact that it's a phase V node might be the reason. Slightly incompatible with phase IV sometimes...

I think the problem is that ROOSTA is in area 6, and the area router for
6 is STAR69. Trouble is, STAR69 doesn't have a path to ROOSTA and
doesn't know how to send it packets.
Unless ROOSTA is an area router, that link makes no sense. You cannot
have (usable) links between different areas unless both ends are area
routers...
It would appear something is more broken currently. I can't talk to SG1
from MIM either, and thus nothing beyond it. And SG1 is currently acting
as the next hop for a whole bunch of areas, as seen from area 1.
Also, while I'm at it: NIKKEL - There is some issue with that machine
too. Can others talk with it?

If ROOSTA isn't an area router, then there is absolutely no point in
having links to other areas.
If a machine is an area router, it makes sense, but only if the link
leads to another machine that also is an area router for that other area.
It is perfectly fine to have several links between various areas.
ROOSTA is an area router, but, yes it does need a direct link to the
rest of area 6

I have a Windows 2000 workstation running on my desk with a Dual
PIII-933Mhz setup.
I would like to know if any of DEC/Compaq's utilities for Windows NT
are still out
in the wild. I know for example there is a Windows NT x86 Notes
client. I also
know that PATHWORKS 32 for Windows allowed Windows NT boxes to use DECnet.
Also
There are various VMS remote management tools.
Does anyone know if I can find these anymore, and where? Also is there
anything
else out there that might be of interest?

Okay, well STAR69 has Multinet on it but as for tunnelling between them
I ain't got a clue, chief, and again I can't guarantee 100% uptime on the
link if it is opened.
