Telneting to KA10.DE
====================

Today I tried to connect to the KA10.DE's PDP-11 machine [1]. That box (the
PDP-11/84)  runs a  Gopher server  (written  in BASIC!)  and offers  an
anonymous Telnet access to its RT-11 environment. I already have seen a
working RT-1 box (albeit at has  been a stripped-down Russian clone one
- the  UKNC school computer) but  this German site runs  the real thing
with FOUR Megabytes of RAM (my tiny  UKNC has 65 kB). Thus the PDP runs
the  multi-user  version  of  the RT-11  with  many  advanced  features
available.

Of course, I'm not connecting to  that site from a modern computer. But
my SGI  Indigo desktop (which  is a telnet  client machine for  now) is
still way more bloated than this PDP-11 (the server)...
