Some people are sending replies to me, the moderator, that they apparently
intend for the original author of articles.  This means that their software
is using the "Path:" header line to reply, instead of using the "From:"
header line.  Anything I get along those lines in the future, I'll assume
to be a submission to the newsgroup and either post or reject it as
appropriate.  Here's a summary of the responses I've received to the
DECNET query.  Something along these lines should be done by the original
author of a query and then posted back to the group.  Thanks.  Ron.

Sun has ported Decnet to their machines, I'm quite happy with it. I don't
know about other Unix boxes.

If you've got a SUN, or access to one, they have Sunlink DNA
to do DecNet access.  It does dnalogin, dnacp and dnals, which
all do what you would expect based on the names.  It also lets
you "set host" on your vax to a SUN.

Well, if you buy DEC UNIX (Ultrix), you can true DECNET protocols right
on the UNIX machine. I think they also provide some gateway software as
well.

DECNET, and in the Dec's newtork for VMS?   If so, you can run
Eunice on the the VMS vax and run TCP/IP to/from that!   Much
nicer from the unix box's point of view, and all you really need
is (if you don't have it) is Eunice.  (Oh, yes...this assumes you
have a *REAL* (i.e. BSD type) Unix-machine!)
