I'd prefer to have DECnet in Linux for that reason.  However, I don't recall that I ever came across a very stable version of latd and the client (whose name I've forgotten).  Somebody on this list worked on them I think.

I had been maintaining a DECnet repository with a number of bug fixes at both the application and kernel level (<https:://github.com/JohnForecast/RaspbianDECnet>). It’s mostly targeted at the Raspberry Pi but I have tested an earlier version of the code with vanilla Debian on x86 (both 32- and 64-bit). Unfortunately, due to family medical issues, I’ve been unable to spend any time on this (or any other) project for the last 9 months, and I don't see that changing in the foreseeable future.
