CAP distribution 2.01 is now available. The major differences in this
distribution are:
o it now uses the Tappan/BBN routing code for the Kinetics bridge
Thanks to Dan Tappan for integrating and contributing the code.
o an experimental version of the AppleTalk Session Protocol is also
available.
o ddp now has checksumming available
o nis has been renamed to the AppleTalk Information Server (atis)
and incorporates the Tappan/BBN's masterbridge
o CAP version of efsd now allows a mac to "open" more files than
available file descriptors.
o of course, all the previous patches to distribution 2 have been applied.
This release should be of most interest to those with multiple
Seagate/Kinetics bridges or BSD 4.3 systems. There are outstanding
alignment problems in some of the modules which prevent correct
functioning on machines other than VAX's (and possibly suns); in
particular, there are problems using an IBM RT PC running ACIS 4.2BSD.
Work is in progress to correct these deficencies.
More detailed information is available the files RELEASE and
