speaking of hecnet I posted the 'updated' version of the simh stuff on
the simh list, and the full source/binary stuff is available at
sourceforge....

I think you want to point it at your ISP's news server. :-)
Erm ...
The HECNet list is required to read my mind, didn't you know that? ;) ;)
That's what I get for sending out a message right before I turn in for the night ...
ISTR trying NEWSRDR about 10 years ago, but at that point my ISP didn't require a login for the news server (i.e. this was before they outsourced it). No clue on if it supports authentication or not.
Gotcha. It successfully connects, but gets confused when the news server wants authentication. I may try to find a copy of ANU News and try that. I was browsing around on c.o.v and saw that someone was able to patch NEWSRDR to do authentication - I may mail that gentleman directly and see if I cold acquire a copy.
Cheers,
Fred

Apologies if this is slightly off topic, but there's far less noise here than comp.os.vms - plus I don't have to wear my "asbestos underwear" here.

Hello!
While rebuilding my collection of PDF files from BitSaver's archives I
came across a collection of items that state something about RSX and
DecNet. I am curious naturally if anyone on this list has ever met
such an oddity.
What is supposed to be the "oddity" about it?
