[comp.dcom.lans] ARCNET <--> Ethernet

paulh@sequent.UUCP (Paul Hahn) (03/16/90)

Does anyone know of methods whereby an Novell Lan using ARCNET can be
gatewayed to a TCP/IP environment using Ethernet? Also, are there any
TCP/IP implementations that support ARCNET interfaces?

Yes.  The latest version of Phil Karn's TCP/IP package, NOS, has ARCNET
support, in conjunction with my ARCNET packet driver.  Phil's code is
copyrighted, with free copying allowed by educational and amateur radio
operators.  The packet drivers are copylefted.  The ARCNET packet
driver will be in the upcoming release 6.x, which will be announced in
these forums.
