Ive been trying to dial out on our VAX 6220, but have had no luck with
it. Perhaps someone can help me?

There is a modem that I can dial in on, so I assume that I can dial out.
(hopefully!). Were running VMS 5.2, using DCA hardware for the net (I dont
think its DECnet). I just cant seem to find the port that the modems 
connected to. I dial into the VAX on one machine, and do SHOW USERS/FULL
to see what port Im at, hang up, and at the main console, SET HOST/DTE node
where node is the port shown to be before. No dice.

Is it possible? Thanx in advance.
