[HECnet] MVS and DecNet

Saw your note on Hecnet about MVS and DecNet I've run MVS 3.8J on Hercules for years on Macs and PCs (usually on Linux) ISTR that DEC had an interface that sat on the IBM channel and looked like a 3274 control unit --- I also remember going to a demo at DEC late in their life and watching the product crash over and over :-) The place I worked ended up installing TCPIP on the 370s to talk to the Vaxen - I believe it was a port of the Stanford or UCLA code (don't remember which). Anyone who needed terminal access to the mainframe went thru the Vax that was the gateway. Sterling Garwood slgarwood at charter.net
