Re: [Linux-decnet-user] [OT] DECnet Phase IV or DECnet Plus?

[Paul K. <pk...@xe...>]

Note that DECnet phase 5, or whatever they call it, is supposed to
include backwards compatibility with phase 4.  So if you need to talk
to a DECnet/Linux box (which is phase 4) that is supposed to work.
Give or take bugs, of course, as usual.  But unlike certain other well
known software vendors, DEC has always made backwards compatibility a
non-negotiable software requirement.
