And, that being the case, we need to have the same features that people
have liked with DECNET (such as the remote save sets) available with IP.

In the Unix world, I use the SFTP filesystem for a lot of things that I
would have done more easily with DECNET transfers in the VMS world.  In
the Windows world they have SMB fileshares integrated in much the way
DECNET is integrated into VMS.
