I, too, am interested in knowing if XENIX supports sockets, especially on the IBM microcomputers. I am trying to get sockets going on the IBM AT (with the 80286 processor) and on the XT 286. The IBMs are hooked via the 3Com 3C501 half-size Ethernet. Man, am I ever having a hard time at it! Please keep me posted too. Aside: I have just started to use this news network, so I hope this letter gets out and that my address is correct. Cross my fingers. -- David Tsai ...!{uw-beaver!ssc-vax, ubc-vision}!uvicctr!dtsai dtsai@uvicctr.nrl-css.arpa dtsai@uvunix.bitnet dtsai@uvunix.uvic.cdn
