I see that you have solved the problem, but you could probably also
have solved it by installing the LAT programs (a separate protocol that
doesen't need ethernet adress changes e.t.c. and also the protocol
Digital themself used between their terminal servers and computers).


Possibly, but after spending an hour trying to get llogin to connect to anything I realize I am unable to understand the lat principles/documentation.
So I will have to stick to dnlogin for the time being.
Too bad, since I now realize my tcpip is limited to the local subnet when decnet is running.

Thank you very much!

However,

# sudo ifdown eth0

did not work, I got

# Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.
(why?)

but this worked:

# sudo ifconfig eth0 down
# sudo setether 57.5 eth0
# dnlogin fyvax7

Welcome to VAX/VMS V5.5-2H4 on node FYVAX7 Username:



Success!

So I was right, it was the startup order.
For the time being, I can do this manually.
But for the future, the remaining thing would be to adapt to the
"upstart" scheme. But this is beyond me, at least for the moment.
