I finally got my issues with Comcast straightened out and I now have static IP addresses. They are
IPv4: 50.185.8.122
IPv6: 2603:300b:6c4:21a0:c77b:4f58:27e4:6de2
These are also always available in DNS as decnet.theberrymans.com <http://decnet.theberrymans.com/>
Hopefully, this will be the last change for a while.

Updated Help
All source, documentation, executables, control files and test data are
available for Anonymous NFT on HECnet from VENTI2::PS:<OINKY.K20MIT> and
associated subdirectories. Documentation includes more detail on the
above list. All regression tests have passed except for Tops-10 because
of some local networking issues.
Be aware that VENTI2:: is running a FAL alpha candidate, so let me know
if you get unexpected behavior.
Hi,
Is anyone testing this mailing list's recipients?
The reason I ask is:

Activity from cassini.dfupdate.se is valid and expected.
The other attempt(s) from static.216.112.243.136.clients.your-server.de was an attempted non-local relay to jessindewinter(a)gmail.com<mailto:jessindewinter@gmail.com>
It wasn't exactly a problem and the attempt was denied with some tar-pitting along the way.
Times in GMT+01:00 (BST) by the way.

So Mark (Matlock) has been after me to get my HECnet connection up and running and me, being an ace procrastinator, has always said "Real Soon Now™", Mark.
I might actually have time to do it as I'm on vacation for a week and a half. Despite the heat I could set something up. My question is how do I set it up. I have a Mac Mini in Las Vegas running VMWare ESXi. I have a VM (Aniketos) running Vyos for a firewall/router, another VM with an Nginx web server (Hermes - irrelevant just mentioned for completeness) and a really small (1 vCPU) Linux VM (Knight) which I want to run Paul's PyDECnet router for the world to connect to. From there I have an IPSec VPN to my Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 4 at home. How can I connect DECnet through the VPN to Knight from home? Is it even possible? Do I need or want GRE tunnels through the VPN?
Am I just making it too complicated and should I set up a PyDECnet router at home and go that way through my dynamic IP? It's possible I could set up an x86 OpenVMS machine as another VM
I'm thinking I need a PyDECnet router at home to collect all the DECnet traffic and shove it through the VPN to the PyDECnet router at the remote site and from there out into the internet to it's HECnet connection points. Does that make sense?
I tried drawing an ASCII picture but apparently I suck at that. Hopefully the description makes sense.
Hoping to get people's thoughts and if you're experienced in designing PyDECnet config files, any pointers are welcome.
