Here is an extract from the README: User Mode DECnet Router Readme ============================== This program is a DECnet router that implements version 2.0 of the DECnet routing specification found here: http://linux-decnet.sourceforge.net/docs/route20.txt Features -------- 1. Runs on Windows either as a Windows Service, or as a console program. 2. Runs on Linux as a daemon. 3. Full routing capability, so it avoids broadcasting all routing messages to entire network and kills looping packets. 4. Supports Ethernet (using pcap/winpcap). 5. Supports Johnny's bridge. 6. Can be extended to support other kinds of circuit (Cisco and Multinet might be examples, not tried). 7. Does dynamic DNS updates without blocking. Limitations ----------- 1. Only tested on Windows Server 2003 and Raspberry Pi running Debian. 2. Does not support Phase III nodes. 3. Although it can be configured as a Level 1 node, Level 1 is not fully supported. It has only been tested as a Level 2 (area router) node. 4. Limited testing on Raspberry Pi. 5. Performance not tested. 6. Not tested with multiple ethernets. 7. Limited testing with multiple bridges. Regards Rob

DECserver 200/MC - Worth a Punt?

by sampsa＠mac.com

Got one here as a console server, works great. Same model too. Recommended.

And there are pretty much always machines online on HECnet which can boot them. (Both MIM:: and PONDUS:: for example.) Johnny

I haven't checked the price on DECserver 200's lately, but newer ones (DECserver 90, DECserver 700) are very expensive even on Ebay. 100s and 200s are practically giveaways, but that's practically a giveaway price. They're great little machines. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA

DECserver 200/MC - Worth a Punt?

Must be UK English Johnny :-) Punter translates to gambler so a punt for me at least translated as "attempt". ------Origineel bericht------ Van: Johnny Billquist Afzender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Aan: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Beantwoorden: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Onderwerp: Re: [HECnet] DECserver 200/MC - Worth a Punt?
