Oh I know, let's build some huge monstrosity consisting of Java 2 EE, PHP and NoSQL, with some legacy PL/I thrown in for fun. Then make it web-based with a UI designed by somebody with BOTH synaesthesia and colour-blindness, with a fondness for the "Icons are all pretty much the same as long as they're roundrects".
Maybe I should stop working with "enterprise" software.

Good question. I'm not sure if the (old version of) majordomo we're
running have that function.
hah.. we are running the latest version of majordomo, which is > 10
years old. I've patched it to work with later perl versions. But now I'm
trying to stay out of it. There has been talk of giving majordomo the
boot and install something else.

When you installed RSTS/E and configured DECnet, what options did you
give? I want to see what I did wrong. Did you do anything after
installing the layered product that was special or did you configure
it in the little installer thingy?
I did this awhile ago, but I don't recall having configured anything
particularly special. I'll go through it again and see if anything comes to mind. I'll probably do that tomorrow.

My lady and I walked up to the PDP-11 and I explained that there was a
guy in Russia logged into the machine. She very much liked that. :-)

Oh, and remember, from VMS, you'll need to be coming from a pre-8.x
machine (as far as I can tell), using "SET HOST/APPL=RTERM MECCA". You
may need to hop through something.
Johnny, maybe you can test login from an RSX system?

I did the port; I used it among other things for implementing an interactive crash dump analyzer *very* loosely modeled on VMS "SDA".
Speaking of Forth, there is also FiG-Forth. It runs under RSX, RT-11 and standalone. I would assume it should work fine under RSTS/E as well, based on that, but I don't know for sure.

Forth.rts is based on Fig-Forth (1980 edition), with substantial changes.

The Forth that Paul mentioned is in fact FIG-Forth.

I had a PDT-11/150 many years ago, mid-80s. It was kinda fun, but
also kinda pointless. The only thing you can run on it is RT-11.
I had one too back then and had a blast! RT-11 is terrific (infinitely
better than contemporary microcomputer OSes), and anyway a 150 will run
pretty much anything an 11/03 will run (but with 30 KW of memory instead of
just 28) so it's really pretty flexible. I wrote a FORTH-79 system on mine ...
