I'm looking for a way to give our Ultrix 4.0 DECstation an alias DECnet node
name.  I know about the cluster alias feature for VMS systems, but it looks
like I can't use this on my Ultrix machine since I can't make it a level 1
router (Ultrix machines can only be DECnet end nodes and not routers, right?).
Any one have any suggestions on how I give my machine 2 DECnet node names that
can be used local and from other machines?  If this isn't supported now will it
be in the immediate future?

Thanks,
-Jay
