Hi Miles

DECnet Phase IV:

as far as I remember MC NCP SHO EXECUTOR CHAR

Phase V:

MC NCL SHO ADDRESS

This will display addresses and nodenames

With WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETSYI("SCSSYSTEMID") you will get the SCSSYSTEMID

With WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "''f$getsyi("NODE_AREA")'.''f$getsyi("NODE_NUMBER")'" you will get the node area and number as well

Hope that helps

Regards

Heinz

Even simpler:

$ SHOW NET
$ MCR SYSGEN SHOW SCSSSYTEMID

Actually, the SCSSYSTEMID is supposed to be:

(1024 * DECnet-area) + DECnet-node

If not, DECnet won't start. Is that your problem?
