Hi guys. I fired up a (real hardware) PDP-11 tonight and did some
DECnet testing between it and my up-24/7 Alpha.
The systems are a DS10L running VMS v8.3 node 61.2 (AXPEE), and a
PDP-11/53 running RSTS/E v10.1 and DECnet/E v4.1, node 61.4 (MECCA).
Going from VMS to RSTS/E via "SET HOST/APP=RTERM 61.4" gives me the
same crash as was reported earlier.
Going from RSTS/E to VMS via "SET HOST 61.2" gives me this:
---------------------------------------------
$ set host 61.2
Connection Established to VAX/VMS Node 61.2
?Unsupported Virtual Terminal Protocol.
Control returned to node MECCA
---------------------------------------------
Note: File operations work bidirectionally without difficulty.
I log into the PDP-11 from my desktop via LAT using the "llogin"
command, as I have LAT running on the PDP-11. I can also reach the
Alpha via LAT. I don't know how to establish an outbound LAT connection
in RSTS/E (and it's getting late) so I haven't tried that.
