LAT is the software you need:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4993
http://linux-decnet.sourceforge.net/lat.html

There is an RPM in there but I'm not sure how well it runs on Mandrake, you may
be better off building from source.

By default LAT provides a login service from the terminal server which should
"just work" for your dialin (provided the DECserver is set up correctly). 

Also included in the package is a program called "moprc" which functions like
VMSs "ncp connect node" or TSM so you can manage the DECserver from the Linux
machine.
