If someone is interested, I have published the source code and the basic circuitry I have been using. I have also built a virtual console for the virtual pdp-11. Or if you like it more, a simulation of the simulated console for the simulated PDP-11.

I was thinking of doing this as a retrochallenge project - it's really
cool and stops me from thinking about purchasing a real PDP!
which is good - no space *or* money at the moment!
I dunno man, doesn't sound too good to me! ;)

How come writing to SYS$NET doesn't send any output?
FOOBAR.COM is now:
$WRITE SYS$NET "Foobar"

The "TASK=..." will open a channel to and execute the procedure. Logical
SYS$NET is defined as the "back-channel" for communications. So, you can
sent data back in any method you chose as long as it's channels through
SYS$NET.

Do you have the task object enabled?
If so, you can use:
$ TYPE NODE"username password"::"TASK=some_command_procedure.COM"
The command procedure must reside in the home directory of the account
associated with "username password". Once you've connected, communicate
using the SYS$NET logical.

Ok, showing my ignorance here. It it not possible to do:
$ TYPE NODE"username password"::"TASK=disk:[directory]command_procedure.COM" ?

Is there coax in the place? If so look at MoCa devices. Works really well.
Yeah, there's coax, but not in the same room as the /main/ switch There is in another room though that has a switch too. The equipment in the basement is a short run away from the coax splitter down there so that's actually a good idea.

Hello!
I'm going to be moving some of my equipment to the basement here for several reasons (heat produced, noise, space, et cetera), and in planning i'm hitting a roadblock: networking.
I've come up with several ideas:
Wireless client-bridge: Linksys e1000 is garbage and doesn't like to pass DECnet or any of those protocols, so i'd either need a workaround or a better router. (workaround being: a virtual cisco tunnel to my other virtual cisco?) (Other router: /real/ Cisco or a another suggestion from someone on this list)
Powerline ethernet: Is this reliable yet? How are the transfer speeds?
Or: Adding a phone jack, getting DSL on the second line here. (installation costs, but would actually be $2 more/month to upgrade current plan + add a second identical plan not counting hardware rental fees, setup costs, and that stuff)
Running cables all the way from the second floor isn't viable.
Any (viable) options i'm missing?
