If you can't find one, I can make a RSTS image up for you. (I've never done DECnet under RSX, so that'd take me awhile to figure out) Which version of RSTS? I can give my disk image for my install of 10.1 if anyone wants to try and figure out what I did wrong or wants to make it in to a turnkey install it's pretty basic as i'm new to RSTS. (it has DECmail though) I'm cool with RSTS - whatever version is fine. Try http://gewt.net/rsts.7z It's RSTS/E v10.1 (so DCL OOTB), DECnet is installed but misconfigured, if you figure it out let me know. Also if you figure out how to rebuild the monitor let me know. A config is included in the archive that you'll want to modify a bit. I know the disk image says "v92" but trust me, it's 10.1. Password for 1,2 is "epicfail" (don't ask) It seems to not want to boot in simh git, but works in 3.8 and 3.9. (git may've been updated since I last tried, I should rebuild with debugging symbols and try and find the bug if it wasn't just me messing up). DECmail is also installed but not configured. And I may've just figured out why DECnet wasn't working, I'm going to go read the documentation and post back. Okay, I've maybe made progress. Alpha connecting to the RSTS/E system: $ set host 33.301 %SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ, network object is unknown at remote node And on 33.301: Event type 34.1, Object spawn failure Occurred 15-Oct-25 13:11:52.6 on node 33.301 (GEWT1) Reason: Unknown Object identification Source node = 33.302 Source process = 0 556 0 SYSTEM Destination process = 42 (I have no idea what's with the 15-OCT-25, the date is set correctly on the system ) Attempting to reach 33.302 from 33.301: $ set host 33.302 Connection Established to VAX/VMS Node 33.302 ?Unsupported Virtual Terminal Protocol. And it just times out when the VAX tries to contact the RSTS/E system/RSTS/E system tries to contact the VAX. VAX and ALPHA can reach each other and the Alpha can reach HECnet via the VAX Any ideas? If I've made a terrible example for a turnkey install tell me so I can try again. Sampsa PS: I will plague people with noob questions.. If you get good answers, let me know.
