Hello out there! I am looking for a competent Mac wiz to answer a somewhat complicated quetion. Here it is: I work in a MacLab with 25 SE's on an ethernet network, run by 2 Vax 2000 workstations. What I need is a program that does for DecNet what telnet does for TCP/IP protocol systems. Does one exist? Is it share/free ware? Where can I get it (Sumex, simtel20, ...)? Please reply to me, don't bother wasting net space & time. Thanks, Matt Farmer Internet: farmer@umaecs.umass.edu Bitnet: mfarmer@umass

Needs Versaterm (Pro) or another terminal emulator as well. TCP/IP: I use Dec's UCX product (depending on processor, $8000 for a VAX8830) and use NCSA telnet for logging in on TCP/IP. At May 1st, Dec/Apple announced new products. Let's see whether Networking is getting cheaper ... Reinhard
