Gary,
In the last paragraph of your reply to Allan Titcomb, you referred to
a VMS driver for the LH-DH/11 under NCP. Why would anyone write a driver
to support a protocol which is no longer used on the Net. The natural
thing would be to teach DECnet to speak TCP/IP in the appropriate layers.
Is that what you mean? The simple-minded approach of translating NCP
to TCP is no mean feat, and I don't see the sense in trying.
