[comp.sys.amiga] DNET on Apollo

Greetings:

     Some time ago, I saw an article from someone about getting
DNET running on an Apollo.  I have tried to do this, with little
success.  I solved the first problem reported by this other person,
but have run into many problems since.

(The first problem is fixed by putting the BIND for the socket
AFTER the open, in setlistenport).

     I can get an FTERM running on the Amiga, and this will
correctly spawn a csh on the Apollo.  I can do all sorts of
fancy stuff like 'ls' etc., but if I try to 'vi', everything 
hangs.  

     I cannot send or receive files, either.  It appears that
the code is trying to access the socket name DNET.3, but sometimes
it tries to access DNET.<space>.  I do not know why this is
happening.

     Does anyone have any answers?  Has anyone successfully managed
to get DNET running on an APOLLO running BSD 4.3 (NOT AEGIS!)?

     Any help will be much appreciated.

     Cheers,
     Scott W. Hurd.
