I am looking for the equivalent of an RFC that describes XNS packets
that has the same detail as the IP/TCP/UDP/etc RFCs. Although I have
source available, I would prefer if a document were available.
A `man' on a BSD 4.3 system yields the following from the ns man page:
SEE ALSO
intro(3), byteorder(3N), gethostbyname(3N), getnetent(3N),
getprotoent(3N), getservent(3N), ns(3N), intro(4N), spp(4P),
idp(4P), nsip(4)
-> Internet Transport Protocols, Xerox Corporation document XSIS-028112
An Advanced 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication Tutorial
Is the line I have marked with a -> the document I am looking for? If so,
how do I go about getting a copy?
Thanks in advance...

None of the really useful protocols (Mail, Filing, etc) are in it, though. You should be able to order these from somewhere within Xerox. (We never did manage to get the Mail protocol, so Jack Callahan reverse engineered it instead....) -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci Dept (+1 301 454 7163) Domain: chris@mimsy.umd.edu Path: uunet!mimsy!chris

Where can I find some information (detailed!) on the XNS protocol? And more specifically the Ungermann?Bass XNS NetBIOS implementation for OS/2 and DOS
