Guys, what?s the DCL lexical for extracting the remote host and username of someone logged into my system over DECNET?
I?m writing a script that needs the host + username of the person connecting to a captive account..

I have sign saying:
Life is what happens to you while you are making other plans.
In my case this means that I have not had as much time to do things
regarding Tops-10 and such as I want to, but this is slowly changing.
As part of that I have updated the anfdump utility to handle DDCMP
frames encapsulated in TCP/UDP.
In case anyone wants this:

Guys,
I basically had HILANT:: totally lose the plot because of these telnet botnets that are hitting port 23/tcp all over the place.
Have any of you guys been affected? I have a feeling as I?ve got a Finnish IP address I might be one of the Lucky Winners of Putin?s latest ragefest.
FYI, these scripts are smarter than the usual root/Administrator scripts - I logged in and there had been over 49,000 attempts to log in to the SYSTEM account?
Anyway, I?ve changed the NAT forwarding to another port (if you happen to use HILANT:: via Telnet it?s now at telnet://hilant.sampsa.com:2389.
Also, is renaming the SYSTEM account likely to break stuff? They seem to be targeting that specific username so I figured I?d change it to STALIN or something?
Sampsa
So I basically got another 8 IPs from my colo provider and I decided to set up a socat forwarding box.
Basically, socat will literally forward anything to anything.
So I?m going to try to set up my bridge (which currently has to deal with the fact that the HILANT WAN IP isn?t static) through it, if it works, anyone else who wants to connect through it is welcome to do so, I?ll allocate a port for you.
Sampsa
Guys,
I?m planning on running the Telnet Tetris Challenge again and I think one of you guys is hosting a TETRIS account in the US, if I recall correctly.
If not, any volunteers? I?ve got both the AXP and VAX binaries + login scripts etc, I just need someone in the US (because of ping times) to have a Telnet-accessible VMS box with a captive account for the tournament (15-NOV-2016 to 1-JAN-2017).
Thanks,
sampsa

I didn't know there was some suhi called "TACO". :-)
Anyway, HAMACHI was truncated to HAMACH. There are no systems with any
other limit that I know of, and I doubt it would make sense to have some
have a different length. I suspect too much assumes that nodenames are
max 6 chars.

Johnny,
Could you please add the following nodes to the node database:
8.200 TACO
8.201 HIRAME
8.202 INARI
8.203 HAMACHI
8.204 SUZUKI
8.205 EBISU
8.207 UNAGI
They are SIMH-VAX OpenVMS 7.3 running in a cluster called MOSHIX (8.199, already registered but you might want to change the node type to cluster alias).
The SIMH-VAX is running Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS x86-64bit.
Cluster owner is Moishe Bar, location Houston, TX.
Thanks,
Sampsa
