Well I did say I was confused from the beginning :)
I want to basically provide a PPP service on a serial port. This serial port happens to be on the DECserver, so I figured I would make a LAT service called CHIMPYNET on CHIMPY that provides the PPP service. Then anyone connected to the DECserver could just say CONNECT CHIMPYNET and be connected to the PPP service.
Is this doable?

The current setup is that if someone connect to LTA777:, the will be

seems to be defined as a service on the local machine, using port LTA777:
Looks very circular to me...
But I can be reading something wrong, since this is VMS, which I'm not

things right usually.
But without knowing what you really are trying to accomplish, it will be
very hard to get things right.
So. Start over, and start with describing what you want to accomplish,
without even mentioning LAT, LATCP, or any specific details on that
level. Describe it as if you had a serial port locally on the VMS
machine, connected by a physical cable to another machine.

What I'm trying to do is to attach a PPP service to this port, and then be able to connect to that from my DECserver. I've set up the PPP service:
TCPIP SET INTERFACE PP1 /SERIAL_DEVICE=LTA777: /HOST=192.168.77.246 -
/NETWORK_MASK=255.255.255.0 /DESTINATION=192.168.77.151 /COMPRESS=AUTO
But doing a SET HOST/LAT CHIMPYNET does not work - any ideas where I'm going wrong?

First you should create the service
$ MC LATCP CREA SERVI /APPL
Then create the port
$ MC LATCP CREA PORT /DEDI
And then associate the port with your service
$ MC LATCP SET PORT /DEDI /SERVI
Then start your application which listens to the LAT port.
