DNETNML(8) System Manager's Manual DNETNML(8)NAME
dnetnml - DECnet Network Management Listener
SYNOPSIS
dnetnml [options]
Options:
[-dVh]
DESCRIPTION
dnetnml is a daemon that serves incoming management requests from remote systems, usually NCP in the case of VMS and RSX. It is recommended
that the daemon be run from dnetd by adding the following line to /etc/dnetd.conf:
NML 19 N nobody dnetnml
Currently it only serves a subset of information requests. These are (in NCP terms):
SHOW KNOWN NODES
SHOW ADJACENT NODES
SHOW EXEC CHAR
SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS
SHOW KNOWN LINKS
Note that for SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS to work, /etc/dnetd.conf needs to be readable by the daemon user (usually 'nobody') or it will return a
Privilege Violation. There is no sensitive data in this file so it's quite OK to set the permissions to 0644. Though this is not the
default.
OPTIONS -d Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.
-v Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose dnetnml will be. Don't use more than one for normal operation because it will
seriously impair performance.
-h -? Displays help for using the command.
-V Show the version of dnetnml.
BUGS
Probably lots, particularly as some of the functions are undocumented and I've had to reverse-engineer them. SHOW KNOWN LINKS doesn't show
quite the same information as VMS does. dnetnml relies on the information it can get from /proc/net/decnet so it can't show load PIDs or
processes unfortunately.

rmtermd - Old style DECnet terminal services for Linux
SYNOPSIS
rmtermd
[options]
Options:
[-dvVh] [-l logtype]
DESCRIPTION
Allows remote PDP-11 users to connect as a terminal over DECnet.
This application implements the DTERM protocol over DECnet for allowing a remote DECnet host emulating a DEC VT100 terminal to connect to
Linux. DTERM is the old OS-dependent network terminal protocol that predates CTERM; it is needed to support access from PDP-11 systems,
which do not support CTERM. Note that this daemon implements the TOPS-20 variant of that protocol; the client at the other end has to
speak that version. For example, under DECnet/E (for RSTS/E) you have to use the "unsupported" multi-protocol version of "set host".
Normally this daemon will be run from dnetd(8) rather than by hand.
OPTIONS -l Set logging options. The following are available:
-lm Log to /dev/mono. (only useful if you have my mono monitor driver or mdacon and a second monitor)
-le Log to stderr. Use this for debugging or testing combined with -d.
-ls Log to syslog(3). This is the default if no options are given.
-d Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.
-v Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose rmtermd will be.
-h -? Displays help for using the command.
-V Show the version of rmtermd.
EXAMPLES
Starting the rmtermd daemon/Connecting to linux from a PDP-11.
On Linux:
# rmtermd
On the PDP-11:
$ set host pclnx

Hi,
I need to reverse engineer certain directories so I can create the exact directory structure in another machine. How do I go about doing that?
Thanks in advance for your help.
