>As I said, I did not have DECnet/8 in hand 30 years ago

  Sorry - I missed that part...

  I just skimmed the manual, but it looks like DECnet-8 was really limited.  
It's basically a toolkit for writing your own applications that talk via 
DECnet; the only standard applications supplied are TLK and LSN (sort of the 
PDP-8 equivalent to PHONE).  There's no FAL, NFT or RMT task.  It doesn't seem 
like there's much you can do with it unless you want to write a bunch of 
software first.

  Or is there something I'm missing?

Bob
