I believe DEC has product which could talk via LAT and/or DECNET.
(Pathworks I believe).

Also NCD (formerly GSS) provides a X-Server for PC's which could talk
DECNET (as an option).

But is not possible to remove this filter? It is just a pain to talk
to a unix machine with D(r)ECNET.

Sincerly,
Klaus
