Sure, it is possible to add a Sun to a DECnet network.  There are
several ways of doing it.  One is to purchase DECnet software for
the Sun.  Sun sells a product like this, and I believe it's called
Sunlink/DNI.  

If you already have an ULTRIX system and DECnet/ULTRIX,
set up the DECnet/Internet Gateway portion of the DECnet/ULTRIX
software.  This allows an IP-only host to use the ULTRIX machine as
a "translator" between DECnet and IP.  Both telnet and ftp are supported.

Call your local sales critter --- call the Digital person first, though.  :-)
