[comp.sys.dec] Want info on DEPCA DLL interface

ljg@ceres.physics.uiowa.edu (09/23/89)

I'm interested in obtaining specs for programming the DLL driver
interface for DEC's DEPCA ethernet board.  I understand that
what I'm looking for might be found in the VAXmate Tech Ref
manual.  Can anyone confirm or refute this?

My objective is to be able, for example, to write an interface
to allow NCSA Telnet to work with the DEPCA.

Any help would be appreciated.

        yes, this is true.  You can also buy something called the 
        "Datalink Programmers Reference Manual" which is probably more
        up to date; but it is aimed more at people WRITING datalinks than
        using them.

        The order number is EK-PCDLL-PR-001.
