Is anyone aware of any commercial or (preferablly) public domain 
software that allows a Mac to talk to a DECnet host using
a standard async DDCMP decnet line?  I don't need anything
fancy, just a program that will let me do network login's, set host
and text file transfer from my Mac to the VAX.

I am a fairly technical user and willing to do a certain amount of
do it yourself software work to get the thing up.  I know I could
use KERMIT or XMODEM for these functions, but we have a number of
spare ports on our DECrouter 200 and it only supports async DDCMP.
Besides, Decnet is faster and works MUCH better.

If you know of anyone with software that could do any of this stuff,
please send me usenet mail (don't post to usenet...I would probably 
miss it).
