I have a problem which I hope someone has already solved:  I have a
TCP/IP net and a large DECnet net both served by a common VAX (vms).
Some hosts on the decnet network also run tcp/ip.  All tcp is CMU/TEK for vms.
Now the question: are there drivers to encapsulate ip packets, send them
over the DECnet and then make them available for retransmission at the other
end?  I need this because my VAX with Decnet is connected to the rest of
the DECnet network by a 56kb line and that line cannot be used for both
decnet and tcp/ip (for political reasons at least).  Any help would be really
appreciated.

Try afwl-vax.arpa!atavax.decnet!mcdermott  or maybe there is enough
interest here you should just post any results.  Thanks.
