Meanwhile, we removed the DEUNA from the simh PDP10 (KS10) simulator since, according to
Timothe Litt, besides his unfinished midnight project, there was never DECnet code
delivered on the KS10 which could use it.
The arplst output suggests you're working with an IP stack here.
Where does the code for this IP stack come from, and what context was it used under?
If useful code exists, I'll be glad to put the DEUNA device back into the simh PDP10
simulator.
It seems to me that, if one can plug a particular board into a slot in
a particular machine, one should be able to do the same with simh,
regardless of what *old* code may or may not support it. People are
writing new stuff for these machines all the time; witness BQT's IP
stack for RSX for example.
I myself have multiple KS10 systems here, and would love to be able to
plug DEUNAs into their Unibus chassis at some point and have it actually
work. DEUNA support in simh would surely be instrumental in allowing
that to happen.

I've been attempting to (likely incorrectly) get
the DEUNA emulation
working in SIMH's KS10 simulator.
Current status:
* Exists
* Has an address
* Has a vector
* Can be enabled
* Can attach to host interface
...and that's as far as I've gotten. Currently having issues getting
TOPS-10 to successfully link for KS10 with ethernet support. Anyone
have a pre-genned MONITOR executable?
I barely know C...but my patches work:
