Yes several times. Dynamically and statically with a new libpcap built from sources. It seems that pcap_dspatch never calls the callback routine. I haven't had chance to debug it further, maybe later.

Hello!
I actually wasn't going to yield to temptation as it happens. However
you might want to report the bug to Apple. That cat just came out this
week and there are sure as somebody made green apples going to be
bugs.
I'll need to spend some time diagnosing it properly if I'm to report it
to Apple, I suspect just telling them that "simh VAX network emulation
isn't working" wouldn't be a very well received bug report ;-) And it's
obviously more subtle that just a broken libpcap because my LAT software
(which also uses libpcap - though obviously slightly differently) works
perfectly, also I copied libpcap from my un-upgraded Mac to test simh,
and it's still broken on the new OS, which implies it's something that
has changed in the kernel.

Besides I know a specific snow leopard and that's his favorite......

Instead of using a 'dynamic' version of libpcap, try building the source to libpcap, and then build SIMH, however instead of linking libpcap (-lpcap) have it link the object files from libpcap....
I find building it that way on OSX tended to survive os upgrades.. at least on the PPC versions... I'm x86 less so I can't do much for you... :|

I'm using V1.1. Apparently the earlier versions had problems with non-UCX
(i.e. Multinet or TCPWARE) networking.

is a summary of the problem I'm having.

No, but it's on my 'todo' list. I can't remember if it was a Beta,
or V1 that I tried to get working at one point.

Well the BBS is not running on VMS but CHIMPY does have an account (B4BBS) that automagically connects to the service.
The BBS runs as a Win2k VM on the same physical machine as GORVAX.

PS: Check out http://sampsa.com/b4bbs/ - there's Flash-based PC-ANSI emulator on that (the ANSI used by BBS software
tends to break stuff on more "normal" emulators)
Since I haven't had time to hook up my DECserver and get a real terminal going, I went in via the webpage. That's seriously cool. Reminds me a lot of the old BBS's I used to visit when I was stationed in Washington DC.
