[HECnet] intro

I looked at GRE several years ago, but could not make head or tails of it for the requrements of DECnet, so I gave up on that. Ok. I'm pretty sure Brian told me that some of the HECnet areas were connected via GRE, but I (or he) may be mistaken. Either way, I know Brian spent some time on it a few weeks ago but was looking for someone to run some tests with. He seems to have disappeared (he does that from time to time ;)) but when he comes up for air I can work on that with him. If we can get it working, we'll share configs etc in case anyone else needs that info. The bridge program that I wrote does something more or less equivalent. Most of HECnet is either using the bridge, or else DECnet over IP on VMS running Multinet. Ok. I could install Multinet on my DS10L, but I'm already running the DEC IP stack on there...not sure if I can remove that and then install Multinet, or if I'd have to reload the machine. (which would be fine, it's a relatively recent install and I don't have much on there yet) I don't know the physical location of Steve Davidson, but I bet he can tell, and help you get connected... Sounds good, I'll wait for him to pipe up. Thanks! -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
