We soon discovered once that a DECServer 200 was installed, some key items
didn't work anymore.  One was an encryption box that required full 256 char.
ASCII pass-thru.  Our software vendor provided the following fix:
=======
PROCEDURE TO SETTING UP A PASSALL DECSERVER 200

The following procedures will set port 6 on a Decserver 200 called LAT01.

I.  DECSERVER 200 SETUP
	1.  Set privileged password -- (initial setup of DECserver 200)
		Local> SET SERVER PRIVILEGED PASSWORD
		Password> SYSTEM
		Verification> SYSTEM
		Local> LOG

	2. Log on to DECserver and set privilege
		Username> SYSTEM
		Local> SET PRIVILEGED

	3. Set DECserver 200 name if not correct -- (initial setup)
		Local> DEFINE SERVER NAME LAT01

	4.  Set port 6 configuration
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 ACCESS REMOTE BACKWARD NONE
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 FORWARD NONE BREAK DISABLED
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 FLOW DISABLED LOCAL NONE
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 AUTOBAUD DISABLED SPEED 9600
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 AUTOPROMPT DIS BROADCAST DIS
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 MESSAGE DIS LOSS NOTIFICATION DIS
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 VERIFICATION DISABLED
		Local> DEFINE PORT 6 SESSION LIMIT 1
			(allow only 1 session to be on port)
		Local> SET PORT 6 GROUP ALL DISABLED
		Local> LOGOUT PORT 6
			(logout port 6 to activate changes)
		Local> SHOW PORT 6
			(display current setting for port 6)

II. NCP program
	1.  Check that LAT01 node exists
		$ RUN NCP
		NCP> SHOW KNOWN NODES
			(if LAT01 name does not exist)
		NCP> SET NODE 2.3 NAME LAT01
		NCP> DEFINE NODE 2.3 NAME LAT01

III.  DECSERVER SETUP
	1. Check that DECserver 200 LAT01 is defined in table
		$ @DSVCONFIG
			(option 1 to list decservers)

IV. LATCP program
 1.  Run LATCP program and add port
		$ RUN LATCP
		LCP> SH SERVERS
		LCP> SET NODE LAT01
		LCP> CREATE PORT LAT6:/APPLICATION
		LCP> SET PORT LTA6:/APPLICATION/NODE=LAT01 /PORT=PORT_6
                              ^^^
				=====  I'm not sure if this is a typo!
	2.  Edit LTLOAD.COM in SYS$MANAGER directory and add the last two
		LCP command lines above.

V.  Define terminal port LTA6: before using. (This suggests above is NOT
	a typo!)
	$ SET TERM LTA6: /PERM /SPEED=(9600,9600) /EIGHTBIT
	$ SET TERM LTA6: /PERM /PASSALL /PASTHRU /NOHOSTSYNC /NOECHO
	$ SET TERM LTA6: /PERM /NOTTSYNC /NOSCOPE /NOESCAPE /NOTAB

Good luck!
