Does HP-UX currently have job control like 4.2BSD
so that you can stop and start processes, etc ?
HP is apparently going to provide TCP/IP with HP-UX
within the next few months. Does anyone know if
the implementation will be compatible with 4.2BSD
and will include the 4.2 IPC (sockets) and all
the network-related 4.2 programs (rlogin, rsh, etc) ?
Thanks,

But they also told me that there was a decision *not* to release TCP/IP until sometime near the end of '86 when the rest of the networking package was ready. This seemed amazingly stupid to me, so I asked the salespeople if they were really sure what they were telling me was correct. They insisted it was. Sounds to me like H/P is making a big mistake and is getting left more and more in the dust. -- Roy Smith <allegra!phri!roy> System Administrator, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016
