Yep... and now if I can find enough time I could try to interface that one
with the 3780 emulation in Hercules and get RJE working between a SIMH VAX
and MVS3.8J...
I'm pretty sure the needed PAKS are not in the Hobbyist set though...
Hello!
Other problem is that the 3780 emulation isn't completely up to what
any of us, want to do. There's a TODO list that reads like the one the
MTA (here) for their maintenance schedule for working on the subway
system. Long and time consuming....
Incidentally this is not your fault Dave.

release soon?
Mark tagged the current HEAD as beta some weeks ago, but there is no word about the release date yet. For what I'm seeing, there are no serious bugs in the current master branch, at least in the VAX and PDP-11 simulators. I have been using the testing versions for a time, and they seem to be stable.
Of course beware there could be obscure bugs... for instance we catched one in the PDP-11 simulator which manifested itself JUST at the SAV /WB command... The simulator worked fine thru the SYSGEN time... just to render your disk unbootable after SAVing the new system image. :)

As for the accuracy, I know it does the full VAX instruction set (including compatibility mode) but can't be sure about the bus and hardware. I know it does not have an emulated PDP11 as console, so it is certainly not 100% accurate.

Please add this node to the nodelist:

Thanks!

Anyway, node added.

We actually got a VPN going, and this solved the problem. My machine is part of Area 18 now and is called FLIND (18.777).
Excellent. I'll drop you on my bridge then.
You can remove BIGBOA (1.42) for the time being.
Done. (As well as FLIND)

HI all,
Registered on HECnet many years ago, but was never able to get on for long or at all in the past. Now it seems this problem plagues me yet again in a different form.
I've got a PDP-11/23+ running RSTS/E 10.1 and DECnet/E 4.1 behind a DD-WRT router in my basement (WRT54GS, DD-WRT build 13064), and this is behind an AT&T U-Verse router. Something is going on with the packet source ports - they are being marked with a randomized source port.
My questions are: Does the source port matter, when using Johnny's bridge, and he knows my port?
If the port does matter, has anyone experienced this issue (specifically on AT&T U-Verse or otherwise) and solved it?
Is this something I can fix myself, or do I need to look for another solution?
The wierd part is, I used the bridge successfully for 2 days with the bridge installed on a Mac running Mac OS X 10.8. This machine was also talking through a different WRT54GS with DD-WRT build 13064 and identical settings to the other router (client bridged mode). I then moved the PDP to the basement with the rest of my servers, had it go through the linux box for the bridge, and suddenly the packets have this mangles source port. I tried switching it back to the Mac, and now this problem has cropped up there too.
Phew! Help! I just want to hang out with yous guys :)
I've hit the problem with mangled ports in the past. Yes, it certainly do matter for the bridge (or anything else using UDP). Not only a security issue, but you peer needs to know where to send his packets as well.
I have a hack to the bridge, which sortof adapts to this. Ping me sunday, when I have some more time...

Yeah. You can use the scroll region to do insert/delete lines. However, there is no help for insert/delete character. You just have to send it all on a VT100.

Those were added in the VT102...
