- I wrote a minimal XDM for VMS using Multinet and a TFTP daemon which allows
- only read requests from specific trees. I am using it in order to download
- the NCD's images and fonts. It can work over routers and the fonts downloading
- is faster (the process is alive, no need to create a new FAL process).

- You can have it by Anonymous FTP to VMS.HUJI.AC.IL and grab the file
- [.LOCAL]TFTP_XDM.BCK
