[HECnet] HECnet newbie

Hello, newbie here :) I used to run OpenVMS 7.3 under simh on a Raspberry Pi, but have never learnt past the "newbie" stage about OpenVMS. With the availability of the x86 Community Edition, I have now 9.2-1 running under Proxmox at home, and thought "maybe it's time to learn about DECnet and join the HECnet". So here I am, with exactly 0 idea of how DECnet works but the intention to read some of the docs and figure it out enough to join a node or two (or more?) Regards, Alice
