So, I got the hobbyist version of OpenVMS for x86_64 and...it's turned into my second favorite OS after IRIX. But I'd like to connect my SGIs up to DECnet and I'm looking for 4DNN. Specific CD part number is:

812-0218-005 : 4DDN DECNet Connectivity 4.1

Does any of it have it? I know one of you pack rats has it.

Sorry, off-topic actually, but still interested: Do you run it (A) in a VM or (B) on a real machine? If (B), does it require a specific machine (e.g. DL380 Gen something) or what machine do use for it exactly?

I run it on VMs under KVM on Ubuntu. Works well. But the only hardware it actually will run on is the HPE DL380 servers. But work is being done.
