A couple of months ago someone posted how to get the TME emulator to build
on Ubuntu 18.04. I just got a new computer and realized that I didn't
archive said instructions. I would like to set it up so that the tmesh
executable is in /usr/local/bin. I am not much of a programmer more of an
OS history enthusiast so figuring this out on my own is bit out of my
league. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

MIM is in yo-yo mode right now. John Wilson is trying to work out why
the multiprocessor emulation have some issues.
Sorry for any interruption of service. This might go on for a day or so.

There are now some updates/bug fixes. For instance it can now handle
HECnet bridge packets (hopefully).

Hi,
I have a TCP (via multinet) connection to IMPVAX which is hardly ever down. It is at the moment.
Anybody else willing to give me some links to other areas?
Regards,
Keith

The packet in question is an init packet, used to start up a link.
If tcpdump knew about this, it would look somewhat like:
Init, 1.13 info 01 size 576 ver 2/0/0 timer 300
Why MIM decided to restart the link is another question.

Don't let the ANF part of the name fool you! It can do the following:
* listen for ethernet frames with ANF-10, DECnet and LAT.
* listen for DDCMP (simh-style over TCP or UDP), with decoding
of payload (ANF-10 or DECnet).
* listen for Multinet over TCP, with decoding of DECnet.
* do several of the above, in parallel, if you want to see how
a box in the middle molests your data.
* read (and write) pcap-format files.
As usual this is a work-in-progress, and some things (like the manual)
are missing, but the code mostly works. Use the -h flag for help at
this time.

Johnny,
I am suddenly seeing this from IMPVAX. Not sure what to make of this ?

WWENG2.SYS? Is that right for the DS-550?

I speak to machines with the voice of humanity.
Does anyone have the Phase II DECnet that goes with RSTS V7.0? I think it calls itself DECnet/E V1.1, rather confusingly.
For that matter, are there any Phase II DECnet releases around? I know of the TOPS-20 one; any others? Ditto for Phase III.

Hey folks. I'm looking for firmware for the DECserver-550, which gets
downloaded into the terminal server by its boot host. Does anyone here
have a copy? (It seems I have the firmware for every DECserver except
that..)
Thanks,
-Dave
