Hi. Is there a Unix with TCP/IP (and NFS, if possible) for the Intel System 320? Any pointers are welcome. Thanks in advance. --Anil ================================================================== E_mail : ..uunet!shakti!anil OR anil@ncst.in Phone : +91 22 620 1606 [office] Telex : +81 11 78260 NCST IN Post : Anil Garg, National Centre for Software Technology Gulmohar Cross Road 9, Juhu, Bombay - 400 049, INDIA ==================================================================

Bloomfield, MI 48332 (313) 851-8096 It's my understanding that the network card in the Intel 320 system is the sbc552A (the 320 is a Multibus I system). The Intel product catalog states that the TCP32 and NFS32 products, as mentioned by Mickey Smith above, only support the 'PC' platform UNIX and 'PC' type network cards (specifically the Intel PC586, 3COM 3C501 and 3C503, and the WD8003E). Intel sells 3 versions of UNIX V 386... SYSTEMV386I for Multibus I systems (this is the one for the 320) SYSTEMV386II for Multibus II systems UNX32...(many part #s) for 'AT BUS' systems It appears that the TCP32 and NFS32 products will NOT work in the 320 version of UNIX. I have been told that CMC(Network Sciences), or Wollengong may have TCPIP products for MBI UNIX...I'm sorry I don't have more information about the companies or the products...

Each requires that the system be running UNIX V/386 R3.2.2. The transport software that is downloaded to these boards at boot time allows the TCP stack to access an exposed data link on the communications board. This is a new feature, and was not supported previous to the last release of iNA960 transport service provider. # Mickey Smith, Regional Software Specialist # Intel Corporation # 7071 Orchard Lake Road # W.
