It seems Psilo had rebooted. Bridge have been restarted. (Yes, I know, I should set things up to it starts automatically... Any year now...)

I've been talking to Steve Davidson and it crossed my mind that if we
use multinet to connect we won't need a separate unix box as we wouldn't
require Johnny's bridge. Is that correct? Might be worth going through
the motions if you have time, (a) to get the process documented and (b)
to provide a good fallback strategy if option 1 using the bridge to
connect through to you doesn't work.
I know this wasn't meant for the list, but I had some questions anyway. :-D
I've got a new colo server in place which means I could actually run simh on
my colo box (which would be a good machine for a "hub" of some kind) and I
was wondering about the multinet thing myself. I can't get simh its own IP
address, so I would need to do port forwarding to get this to work. Is that
possible? Does the multinet tunneling stuff work over static ports or does it
use dynamic ports?
Also, I would want to setup the bridge as well. Are there any direction on
setting the bridge program up to talk directly to simh?
Thanks!

As Fred has said port 700 is all yo need to deal with Multinet. The bridge
allows you to configure whatever port you need.
Here I run a VS3900 on SIMH on NetBSD as well as the bridge all on one lowly
little P3-667Mhz. I am running a VS4000/VLC with Multinet. The Multinet
box can deal with dynamic IP addresses at the other end, in fact it does so
automatically so it has become noise.
If you need specifics, contact me offline and we can go from there.

Ah, excellent! Thanks.

Well then, I'll wait for someone who's area it is to answer. :-D

Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a
polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they
prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.

I did my bit promoting hecnet at the VCF. There are some pictures here:
http://amibay.com/showthread.php?t=7165
If you look carefully you should be able to spot the DIGITAL logo and
hecnet info in one of the images - I'm the one looking pensive at the
thought of being filmed ;)
For the most part the show was dedicated to gaming computers and the BBC
Model B which spanned gaming and education in the UK. One of the stands
had Spectrums modified to communicate over the internet - they were
using a microvax 3100 running openbsd to serve up firmware to the
spectrums (afaik).
Not sure how much interest will be generated long term, but there were a
few people who'd heard of hecnet and a few who said they'd like to get a
machine up and running on it.
The BBC programme 'Click' is due to air on 2nd July and will have a
segment about VCF UK.

There's some issues connecting to Johnny unfortunately...

Hi Sampsa,
Are you going to be about tomorrow afternoon to try and setup a hecnet
bridge from the national museum of computing to your network? Let me
know one way or another, cheers. Mobile is 07917 653012.
Regards, Mark.
Is hecnet ok from your perspective at the moment?
