dont have anything for RSTS other than RSTS itself, *and* have

RSTS is high on my todo-list.
But, if you give me directions, and a copy of dnet/e, I can
always try it on my hardware and emu's...

What I did
notice is that DEQNA's (and DELQA's) quite often drop packets
as soon as traffic gets heavier on the network. I tested this at the
raw-iron level (my own bare-metal test code) so that is not an OS-
driver issue. Under E11, I did not see this weirdness happen, so it
is a real-hardware thing.
Have you ever gotten DECnet/E running on E11? Has anyone? I forget where it dies, but
IIRC, it gets as far as the reboot after the install, then it can no longer find the
ethernet adapter.
