I hope some can tell me this can't be done, but some genius at work
has decided they want to interconnect an IBM
LAN-server-on-token-ring to a DEC / VMS Decnet.  They've already
found out about DECs thinwire to IBM type 3 cable products (I Think
its type 3 anyway) so we're running DECnet on thinwire on 4 wire
shielded twisted pair via DECconnect to the "big black connectors"
cables.

Any thoughts? Sympathy?? Or am I just being stuffy???

Thanks in advance for any input.
