Is some information about the Decnet protocols (including LAT) available ? I often read messages showing that people is very well informed about packet formats and such issues, but never found a complete description of the protocol (kind of RFCs, as they exist for TCP/IP). Does Digital sell the specification for reasonable prices ?

Does Digital sell the specification for reasonable >prices ? Digital has historically sold the specifications -- the problem has been finding the product number. I used to have friends at Digital tell me the product number (printed on the cover of the manuals) and then call my local salesman and ask for a copy. Craig
