It's been a LONG time since I've done any DECnet networking. Is there a good place to read up on it or should I just read the VMS manuals online since I'll be doing this from VMS mainly at first. I spent quite some time trying to get an area router working. I couldn't find any documentation other than the standard DEC manuals (available online). The DEC manuals talk about the theory, including non-routing, level 1 routing and level 2 routing (area routing), but I couldn't find any document that explained how to enable level 2 routing. Thankfully, this list was able to help me out. Ian. The online docs aren't the easiest to look through. But they are there it's in this book http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/73final/documentation/pdf/DECNET_OVMS_NET_MAN… Page 3-49. I only found it by searching the whole document for routing and looking at every result. Dan
