Does anybody know about the software/hardware package that would link 386 PC with ISC2.2 runing TCP/IP and VAX/VMS running DECNET. I need is to be able to run rtools (rsh, rlogin, rcp...) and telnet to and from the VAX. The most desirable solution (I think) would be some kind of network card that could be plugged into a PC and a UNIX software that would gateway DECNET to TCP/IP. I found a Racal Interlan product in ISC compatibility listings but they do not sell it any more. YOUR opinions, company names and phone numbers would be greatly appreciated. (please use mail: peter@modtor, and I will post a summary) -- Peter Ziobrzynski, peter@{modtor,nixtdc,snitor}.UUCP Toronto, Ont. +1 (416) {H:625-1684, W:496-8510, Fax:496-8524}

There's a company near me called Technology Concepts (Sudbury, Massachusetts) which sells such software. Try calling them to see if they support your configuration; I worked for them briefly on a DOS version of this product (called CommUnity), which has reached the end of its lifespan but they still support Unix and the Mac. I've forgotten their number but you should be able to get it out of AT&T. -rich

Have you considered running TCP/IP on your VAX/VMS system? I have heard good things about Multinet from TGV, although I haven't personally run it yet. They are in Santa Cruz, CA. Kevin

Anyway, the DECNET stack that we are compatable with is the CommUnity product from a company that used to be named TCI or Technology Concepts Inc. They have changed their name, but I believe they still sell CommUnity Streams. Their phone number is (508)443-7311. I have tested their stack with the NI6510 & ES3210 drivers, but it may have taken some fudging to get it up. Drop me an email at dale@interlan.com to try to get an email path worked out. Dale

Mounth ago I posted the same question. Today I think the only proper solution of this problem is to install a TCP/IP on VAX (like VMS/Ultix Connaction) But it's right, there are still some companies how have special products: Meridian, PO BOX 2006,St. Loius, MO 03011 Recal Interlan, 155 Swanson Road,Boxboroug,MA 01719,+1 508 263 9929 Syntax, +1 206 833 2525 TGV,+1 408 427 4366 Wollongong,Minervatraat 4,B-1930 Zaventem,Belgium,+32 2 725 4910 Please, feel free to email me.
