[comp.unix] Protocol Modules Using Streams

martin@felix.UUCP (Martin McKendry) (06/30/87)

Does anyone know of a source of networking protocol modules
for such protocols as TCP/IP, ISO, XNS, and SNA that use
the System V streams mechanism?  The modules would have
to available either in the public domain, or under license.

Thanks for any help.

Lachman Associates is currently putting together a reference port of TCP/IP 
under System V STREAMS which will be available in source form under license.
Their phone number is 1-800-LAI-UNIX.  Also, The Wollongong Group in 
Palo Alto, CA has a version of the TCP/IP suite available under STREAMS, but my
belief is that they are not happy giving away source (I'm not sure about that
you should probably call and ask).  There is also a British company called
Spyder Systems which has a version of TCP/IP under STREAMS.  I don't know
their address, but they talked at a TCP/IP conference in April which was 
arranged by Advanced Computing Environments in Cupertino, CA so I bet they 
would know  where Spyder is.  Their number is 408-996-2042.

I don't know of any implementations of other protocols under STREAMS, although
I believe that AT&T is either developing or subcontracting for an ISO stack.

Good Luck,
