Does any one know the system service call (and I am assuming that there is
one) to find out if a remote DECnet node is available WITHOUT establishing a
link to it?  I am making an exhancement to an existing program that was written
before we had DECnet.  I am using BASIC under VMS v4.2.

Thanks in advance.
