You could do that on the async DECnet DDCMP line. Unfortunately I think that only gets you to console ODT and not an actual reboot. Now, if you took a soldering iron to the DLV11-E and hacked it ever so slightly so that break asserted BINIT instead, I think it'd actually work. Of course you'd need the host side to send a break - I don't imagine DECnet could do that. No, that's not a DECnet or MOP feature. It's not hard to do, of course, given support in the sending system's UART. paul
