Hello!
At one point in time, the OS for the Mac did speak natively to the DEC
family of hardware.
Do you mean OS X ir Classic Mac OS?
It would be very interesting to find out how they
did it. This would greatly benefit Sampsa at least.
If it's OS X It'd benefit me too provided it still works on modern versions.

Hello!
Oh okay. Consider this, it was for the classic Mac. And the big guys.
Shortly before the PowerPC processor was released. I remember going to
a trade show that showed just such a network being there. They had
everything named, including a VAX named VAX Masterston. I pointed out
that the original name retired from being a gunfighter and ended up
becoming a New York sportswriter.
He died soon after that and ended up in Woodlawn. I can't recall if he
was present at that gunfight.
All of that took place sometime in the late 80s.
