There are several ways to do DECnet over IP, including Multinet, Johnny's
bridge program, certain models of Cisco routers, and Linux DECnet, plus
maybe more that I don't know about. Unfortunately none of them are really
compatible, so you'll have to say which one you want to use before we can
help.
If you're using Multinet, then I'll be glad to connect you.
BTW, I notice your "dyndns" address - most of these aren't really usable
unless you have a static IP. All these connection methods are based on
actual IPs and not DNS entries, so anytime your dynamic IP changed the guy
at the other end of your tunnel would have to reconfigure your connection.
That gets old pretty fast.

I'd be interested in connecting my Alphastation with Multinet, if
possible. I've got cable internet and all my machines are behind a
router... pointers and directions would be appreciated!

Hmm. Is this the same machine as is running the bridge?
Johnny
Yes, is that a problem?
Could very well be. The problem is that the bridge program cannot
exactly feed the ethernet input on the same machine as it is running,
nor hear data sent out on the ethernet port of the same machine. That
is, unless the hardware will do this for you. Some hardware do, but most
don't. So you don't see your own data, which makes it impossible for my
bridge program to handle the machine it itself is running on.
Johnny
I have a router on the LAN, so could it all be configured
to use that to bounce packets right back?
I take it most internet routers aren't going to route UDP/700?
which is why the bridge program vs sending raw DECNET UCP/700?
Aloha, Angela

Hmm. BEA is 1.19, not 1.20.
1.20 is KNASE. Another PDP-11/70 running RSX.
Oh, and PAMINA is actually running T20 V7.1...
