We have DECnet and TCP/IP on our machines. They are talking DECnet.
There is TCP/IP on Ultrix machine.

Disclaimer: Hey, I understand VAXen and VMS. That's what I get paid for. My
understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So
unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my
organization responsible for it. If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to
hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.

OK, you added half the requisite information. Still not enough for a
definitive answer, though. How are the messages that are supposed to go to the
Ultrix machine via the VMS machine addressed? How about vice-versa?

C'mon, if you want help, you've got to make at least a token effort.
