You are, of course, correct. I was assuming he would pull them as binaries with some
other machine with Phase IV connectivity and then put them on his local 4.1 20.
Actually, with my latest development bits of PyDECnet (not yet ready to be posted quite
yet) I have enough of "Intercept" that I can talk directly to remote nodes, so
long as the network doesn't drop any packets since Phase II doesn't have ARQ.
Intercept can do that, and I think an actual DEC version did so (if the outside network
was Phase III), but mine doesn't just yet.
