[comp.org.decus] Help w/ TCP/IP

mhart@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil (hart) (12/07/89)

Help!!!!
	Someone asked me for info on TCP/IP software for VAX/VMS 5.  
	I know that CMU has some p.d. s/w available, which I found at 
clutx.clarkson.edu (128.153.4.3).  However, I can't figure out which 
files to get, or where there is any documentation.

	Can someone help me with this? Either alternate sources of 
code, or info on what I need to FTP??
	Also, any comments/flames on p.d. TCP/IP for VMS??

	I promised I'd get a reply back by 1500 Friday, 8 Dec, so speed 
is of the essence!!!

Thanx in advance!

The CMU code isn't PD per se. You still have to license it and get a
distribution, but it is fairly cheap (like around 100-150 dollars). The
CMU stuff I put out on CLVMS.Clarkson.Edu are pretty much just some patches
to various things to make it work under V5 (this is for version 6.3 of CMU/TCP,
the newer version, 6.4 works out of the box under V5). Try contacting
Bruce Miller @CMU  (brm@spiff.andrew.cmu.edu) for more info. He is the
person who is the current maintainer of the package. He will refer you to
the appropriate channels down there to get the stuff.
