Hi
A SIDRAT was a primitive time-travel device from "The War Games", built by a renegade Timelord (The War Chief).
The network hassles are purely internal. We got a new router which despite being the same model as the old one won't take the restore set, so I had to go though all the config again. And the cable running over the roof got damaged. And then I reformatted the machine running the bridge without checking that it worked fine on the new machine (so far it doesn't, but it could be my mistake).
Currently I've got one Pi running the simvax(TARDIS), and a second one trying to be the bridge (and VNC server etc).
The other two are now tied up with stupid projects for my employer. It won't end well.

Sidrat? Who is that? And where was the name first shown?
And I nearly bought a R.PI on the last weekend in September. But given
the fact that I'm up to my placeholders with newer hardware, I decided
against it for the moment.
Next up what is the issue with your network? Remember place-names and
hardware are everything.
Also are you using Rob's user-level router for your local support?

Just a quick update.
SIDRAT and JUDOON are not returning and can be deleted from the node list.
TARDIS will return, but i'm having problems with the bridge software at the
moment, and doing a big re-organisation of my network.

This is what is in my (simhVAX 3900 Server) init file:
set xq mac=08-00-2B-AB-C0-44
att xq0 eth1
And in that particular order.
Take note of the device number in ethx - it is SIMH's view of network cards not necessarily the actually name of the device.
You will see the mapping as you boot SIMH.

Cool, thanks.
I wanted to see what would be faster, the AlphaVM-Free or SIMH VAX and I'm definitely leaning towards AlphaVM. Much snappier, feels like real hardware almost.
I thought that emulating a VAX would be easier (thus faster) and an Alpha, but I guess I was wrong..

Does anyone happen to have a copy of a networking enabled Windows SIMH VAX around?

It's here: http://pdp-11.org.ru/~form/files/simh/
Just out of interest, how do I specify the ethernet device (I have no idea how Windows names them) in the ini file?
