   Excelent example,  Both Sun and Ki used to sell DECnet for Solaris.
   Don't know if they still do.  The Linux DECnet code is probably not
   all that hard to port to a UNIX.

   But I do think IP remote savesets could be added to BACKUP, just like
   FTP and RCP were added to COPY.

   Sometime after VSI becomes a profit making business.
