- Are you sure that SET DISPLAY/NODE=LAT_08002Bxxxxxx/TRANSPORT=LAT doesn't
- work? Or are you going through decrouters?
-
- Anyhow my recommendation would be to replace the VT1200 with an NCD
- xterminal. The NCD's can be DECNET nodes (with the appropriate license) so
- you can easily accomplish your task. Plus they have many other desirable
- features in an X terminal.
