I thought I remember in the old days some remote sites just had a terminal server and a couple of terminals. Many beers ago. So, I could go from the DECserver to my local vax, and then bounce out? That's what I do. (Well, DECserver to a FreeBSD box, and then to the world if I want to send email...like this particular one was sent from a VT320 on a DECserver 200/MC) Last night I was basking in the glow of an orange VT320 as I used that and a DECserver to get around HECNET. AFAIR Johnny's bridge is capable of forwarding LAT so I can see a load of services on the DECSERVER if I type SHOW SERVICE. I also noticed that SET HOST LA75, which is meant to be a printer port on the DECSERVER in the basement gave me SYSTEM access to SLAVE. Woops, a little reconfiguration required there! Regards, Mark.

A DECserver speaking DECnet? That'd be awesome to have. Mine (albeit awesome, and one of my favourite things) only speaks LAT. ;) My DS300 does inbound Telnet as well as inbound/outbound LAT and serial :) No DECNET as far as I know. I don't recall a DECserver that talks DECnet. It is the wrong protocol for that type of communication. DECservers originally only spoke LAT, which was developed specifically for local area communications (which it does very well).
