I particularly like the idea of using dntask on the Linux side, but unfortunately that one breaks the "If you already have a working DECnet network..." requirement. Unless something has changed more recently than I am aware of, the DECnet support in Linux has been broken for quite a long time. I had to install a very old distribution on the Linux VM that I set up for doing some DECnet stuff, but this server would be running a very recent distribution. It would be very nice if the Linux DECnet code started getting attention again and could be updated to work in the latest kernels, but that's not a task that I can take on at this time. Alternately, it would be neat if there was a DECnet client implementation that could run entirely in user space. Is there anything like that which I'm not aware of?
