[mod.computers.vax] TCP/IP

WARNOCK@clemson.CSNET.UUCP (02/03/87)

Since a lot of talk has surfaced recently about TCP/IP, I'll chance a question
about the "guts" of it...  We run Wollengong's TCP/IP.   Note the following
scenerio:

$ SHOW DEFAULT
   USER$DISK:[WARNOCK]
$ FINGER
... (normal stuff)
$ SHOW DEFAULT
   ABCD$DUA4:[WARNOCK]

Note that the logical name of my default disk has been replaced by my physical
device name (we are on an HSC, hence the ABCD$ preface on the physical name...).
Not that it hurts anything, but I'm curious about anything that runs as tightly
coupled with VMS as TCP/IP obviously does.

Thanks for any insight, speculation, and/or information...

-----------------


     I would appreciate any information available about versions
of TCP/IP which can run under VMS for all types of VAX system.
We are trying to evaluate the product and I have often seen
references to it here, so perhaps you can help me.

     Ideally, I would like to know the names and addresses of suppliers,
prices and technical impressions from existing users. The target system
is likely to be a 750 which currently runs DECNET and HYPERBUS for
communications purposes.

     Thanking you in anticipation.
