Here is what I see in the RSX sources:
;
; Phase III Session Control error reason codes returned

a node address (rej)

More:
The session control spec makes a distinction between connect error codes
and reason codes as they appear in the protocol. For example, codes 20,
11, and 39 are error codes but not protocol codes. The reason is that
10 and 11 are internal errors -- if you get this then nothing was sent
on the wire -- and 39 is the outcome of something entirely different in
the protocol -- either a routing layer error return, or a message being
returned to sender as unreachable.
The description of 41 looks wrong; 41 as a protocol code means "no link
terminate" which is what NSP sends in response to an NSP message that
refers to a logical link address (connection identifier) that isn't
currently active. That has nothing to do with the destination process;
it normally occurs if the destination node has restarted, or if there
was a network outage long enough for the destination to delete the
connection but the source did not do likewise.
Code 42 is internal to the NSP protocol; you would never see that code
come back to an application as a status value. It's merely the encoding
of the message that acks a disconnect initiate; think of it as an ACK
that's encoded a bit strangely.

Where are all of these spelled out? I had looked in the Phase IVNSP
functional specification (NSP401.TXT) for them, but only a few seem to
be there.
The background is that I have further enhanced Kermit-20 to use direct
monitor connections when doing remote terminals and also to print the
text of a disconnect. I duly copied over the list inMONSYM, Etc.,
Etc., Etc. Earlier this week, I put some more contingency code into
FAL to handle server crashes. Basically, the controller would sit in
a loop forever restarting crashed server (DAP) forks. Now it waits a
while and stops completely after a certain number of restarts.
While I was at it, I checked its list and found that it was missing
text for disconnect codes 10, 11, 21, 22 and 23. Well, I put it in
but got to wondering what others there might be. Right now Tops-20
Kermit and DAP know about the following:
*Code*
*Reason Text*

Resource allocation failure
2
Destination node does not exist
3
Remote node shutting down
4
Destination process does not exist

9
User abort (asynchronous disconnect)

/22/
/Connect confirm with illegal destination address/

32
Too many connections to node
33
Too many connections to destination process
