I have a static IP and the bridge setup, although I imagine I would need a hecnet node-name and number at this point. hi folks. "me too": I've got an alphaserver with OpenVMS 8.4 ready to roll. I've got Rob Jarratt's router running on a spare linux box (raspberry pi, since you asked) because I don't have a static IP. The router code's not configured yet. I'm a DECnet newbie, so would appreciate some abbreviated hecnet directions if any exist (and if not, a pointer to just go away and read the DECnet manuals is equally welcome). I'm in the UK. Is hecnet organised by geographic region? thx, Stuart
