If you can't find one, I can make a RSTS image up for you. (I've never
done DECnet under RSX, so that'd take me awhile to figure out)
Which version of RSTS? I can give my disk image for my install of 10.1 if anyone wants to try and figure out what I did wrong or wants to make it in to a turnkey install it's pretty basic as i'm new to RSTS. (it has DECmail though)
I'm cool with RSTS - whatever version is fine.
Try http://gewt.net/rsts.7z
It's RSTS/E v10.1 (so DCL OOTB), DECnet is installed but misconfigured, if you figure it out let me know. Also if you figure out how to rebuild the monitor let me know. A config is included in the archive that you'll want to modify a bit. I know the disk image says "v92" but trust me, it's 10.1.
Password for 1,2 is "epicfail" (don't ask)
It seems to not want to boot in simh git, but works in 3.8 and 3.9. (git may've been updated since I last tried, I should rebuild with debugging symbols and try and find the bug if it wasn't just me messing up).
DECmail is also installed but not configured. And I may've just figured out why DECnet wasn't working, I'm going to go read the documentation and post back.
Okay, I've maybe made progress.
Alpha connecting to the RSTS/E system:
$ set host 33.301
%SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ, network object is unknown at remote node
And on 33.301:
Event type 34.1, Object spawn failure
Occurred 15-Oct-25 13:11:52.6 on node 33.301 (GEWT1)
Reason: Unknown Object identification
Source node = 33.302
Source process = 0 556 0 SYSTEM
Destination process = 42
(I have no idea what's with the 15-OCT-25, the date is set correctly on the system )
Attempting to reach 33.302 from 33.301:
$ set host 33.302
Connection Established to VAX/VMS Node 33.302
?Unsupported Virtual Terminal Protocol.
And it just times out when the VAX tries to contact the RSTS/E system/RSTS/E system tries to contact the VAX. VAX and ALPHA can reach each other and the Alpha can reach HECnet via the VAX
Any ideas?
If I've made a terrible example for a turnkey install tell me so I can try again.

Here is an excellent opportunity to debug something. You have the sources, you have listings and maps, and you have the failing address, along with the actual problem. Should be pretty easy to figure out. :-)
Lol, yes, it is. I'll give it a try :) I can guess the program is trying to access a word using R3 as indirect register :) R3 is the only one with an odd content! :)
Well, its sorta fixed... The compiler works OK if I DO NOT build the task agains FCSRES. It works if I answer "N" to both FCSRES and FCSFSL. So I've changed a compiler problem for a system configuration problem... :)

Shift the connection to this end (bridge.declab.net) and forget about
it. It is all automatically taken care of here. I will need the IP of
the other end though...

Yeah, the 4000/90 still hasn't gotten turned back on since getting
soaked. No idea if it still even works.
I have little doubt that it'll be fine. Don't abandon hope yet.
Now that sampsa isn't passing through me I doubt there's much traffic
that passes through here at all. I'm a possible path is all at this
point. :)
I'm still connected through you (and Peter) but I've not been very
active lately. Things have been busy at work, now we're going kinda
crazy preparing for this storm. It's looking a bit scary.
