I am using Unix System V (UniSoft) which came with 5 or 6 header files for X.25 communications however, there is not one package with the release which uses them. The distribution manuals also refer to the /net directory which was also not a part of the distribution tape. Since there are not any net programs, other than uucp, I was wondering if something got left out. Does anybody know of a method of incorporating the X.25 protocol in software such that it may be used with a standard RS-232 type tty connection? Public Domain preferred. Bob

it appears that AT&T is making extensive use of generic X.25 as well as Bell X.25. thus, a number of packages have a handful of common include files which have ended up in /usr/include and /usr/include/sys. since all of these go out in a System V Release 2 distribution, we get to see these but have nothing that actually used them. now, if you want X.25 for UniPlus+, you can ask UniSoft if they are selling any, or check with X.25 vendors who may have just what you want. in the Bay Area, try Adax, TITN, or X.Dot (there may be others). on the east coast, NYC area, try System Strategies. -- << Generic disclaimer >> Fred Christiansen ("Canajun, eh?") @ Motorola Microsystems, Tempe, AZ UUCP: ihnp4!{attunix, btlunix, drivax, sftig, ut-sally!oakhill}!mot!fred ARPA: oakhill!mot!fred@ut-sally.ARPA AT&T: 602-438-3472
