I am looking for an arpanet to ethernet gateway. The only restriction is that the words DEC, PDP-11, or VAX not be on the box. The box may contain any sort of DEC equipment. Joachim Martillo

This sounds like a very curious restriction (like maybe a rabid anti-DEC high muckety-muck). -- =============================================================================== Ted Marshall Britton Lee, Inc. p-mail: 14600 Winchester Blvd, Los Gatos, Ca 95030 voice: (408)378-7000 uucp: ...!ucbvax!mtxinu!blia!ted ARPA: mtxinu!blia!ted@Berkeley.EDU disclaimer: These opinions are my own and may not reflect those of my employer; I leave them alone and they leave me alone.

If you are talking about ARPANET in the sense of 1822 or X.25 IMP (or "PSN"; they're the same thing) interfaces, then there are a couple of products that will satisfy your requirement. I suggest that you contact: Proteon, Inc. Natick, MA Communication Machinery Corp. Santa Barbara, CA SUN Microsystems, Inc. Mountain View, CA Advanced Computer Communications Santa Barbara, CA The first two companies make gateway products for connecting one or more ethernets to the DDN (ARPANET or MILNET), and a SUN can also be used as a gateway between DDN and an ethernet. ACC makes 1822 and X.25 host interfaces for lots of different equipment, and you can concievably "roll-your-own-gateway" with their interfaces in combination with some computer manufacturer's CPU (you mentioned DEC, and either PDP-11s or VAX-11s can be used for this). There is a file available for public FTP from the Network Information Center (NIC.SRI.COM) called NETINFO:IMPLEMENTATIONS.TXT which contains the names, addresses and points of contact for all known TCP/IP implementations. It is large, but very useful. Erik E. Fair ucbvax!fair fair@ucbarpa.berkeley.edu
