Howabout starting it as a daemon (running as root) via the boot

Cool idea - you could even have multiple hosts connect this way but export one DECNET
endpoint, i.e. run CTERM on Box A whilst FAL goes to Box B, and MAIL to Box C :)
Are you trying to suggest something like NAT for DECnet?
I'm not sure how easy that would be to do in DECnet, as it works in some different
ways than IP that might cause problems doing this.
