The DECNA isn't too useful outside of a DECnet
then? Does
RT-11 support the RD-52? I know that the docs for Venix state that
there's a problem with using Venix and the RD-52 together. How hard
is it to get the RX-50 disks of RT-11 and to straighten out all the
licensing issues?
Can you get DECnet for POS? Good luck getting it for RT-11, and even if you
do, I don't know if it would support the DECNA. RT-11 shouldn't have any
problem with RD52's.
As for the RX50's of RT-11 and licensing issues, that's the tricky part.
You probably don't want to know what a license costs.

The 'Pro/DECnet Tool Kit Programmer's Reference Manual' dated
November 1985 has a diagram showing both Pro350 and Pro380 machines
(both using the DECNA) connected to a VAX 11/780 and VAX 11/730 (both
using the DEUNA) over ethernet. I've not found anything in any of
the documentation which states which operating system it referenced
though.

That's what I figured. It sounds like the Pro will be like
my MicroVAX then and retain whatever OS it currently has loaded just
because it's the only thing I have.
