Is mim currently down? Tried to get the .tap Thanks for your efforts! Al. -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of Johnny Billquist Sent: Friday, 26 August 2016 10:31 PM To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE; Info-PDP11 at dbit.com; SIMH Subject: [HECnet] Announcing TCP/IP for RSX-11M-PLUS Time for a new release announcement of TCP/IP for RSX-11M-PLUS. There have been some improvements in reliability and stability done in the last few months. Part of this is because MAGICA (the real PDP-11/70 that I use) have finally started coming alive again, and running on that machine exposed some issues related to running out of primary pool (nothing like running on slower, real hardware). I seriously recommend that people upgrade, as some of these fixes are fixing issues that could crash your system. Things that have been done since the last release: ARP: - Bugfix in ARP processing. If system was running out of primary pool, kernel structures could become corrupted. IP: - Bugfix in fragment reassembly. It could cause a system crash under some circumstances. TCP: - Bugfix in daemon activation. If system was running out of primary pool, data corruption in the kernel could happen under some circumstances. DHCP: - Improved option processing, added NTP server option handling, added hostname option to requests. Generally improved stability of code. Multinet: - Improved stability and reliability of code. FTP/FTPD: - Improved file handling. In RSX mode, if the file to transfer was readonly, the transfer would fail, as the file protection was applied to the file before it had been completed. - Added the ability to provide a port to connect to for FTP client. TELNET: - Turned off terminal wrap when running telnet. TELNETD: - Added the ability to listen on several ports. - Fixed issues related to running on mP systems. HTTPD: - Changed timeout handling for sessions. As usual, the distribution is available from: ftp://mim.update.uu.se/bqtcp.dsk ftp://mim.update.uu.se/bqtcp.tap ftp://ftp.update.uu.se/pub/pdp11/rsx/tcpip/tcpip.dsk The documentation is also available through ftp on Mim, or also at http://mim.update.uu.se/tcpipdoc As Mim is behind a firewall, which at the moment is blocking incoming ftp and telnet (we are working on getting that removed again), an alternative is to connect to Mim as Mim.Update.UU.SE:10021 (for ftp) and Mim.Update.UU.SE:10023 (for telnet). (Guess why the ability to listen to multiple ports for telnet, as well as being able to give a port argument to ftp came about... ;-) ) Johnny -- Johnny Billquist || "I'm on a bus || on a psychedelic trip email: bqt at softjar.se || Reading murder books pdp is alive! || tryin' to stay hip" - B.

You know that ftp is way faster than NFT? And you can just do "ftp mim.update.uu.se:10021" on your RSX host, assuming you have a new enough version that it accepts the port number... Once the firewall is gone, life will become so much more sane again... (Not sure what issues you might have had with the DECnet link. Maybe just a timeout issue? It can take a while to recover if the link is lost.)

Then I rebooted the PDP-11/83 and HECnet came back up so I NFTed the .TAP file down to the 11/83 and installed the new version.
