We recently installed the BBN TCP-IP software on our 4.1BSD 780.
Everything works as far as we can tell, which isn't very far since
our connection to Ft. Meade isn't up yet; but there were a few bugs
in the installation guide. (The document is labeled "Installing and
Operating the BBN Networking Software" and dated May 17, 1982. BBN
may have fixed these by now.)
In the following paragraphs, missing material is presented in [brackets],
material that should be deleted in {braces}.
Under section 2.1, page three:
...In addition, there are modifications to the following files:
[asm.sed,] fio.c, ioctl.c, locore.s, machdep.c, main.c, ...
Section 3.1, page five:
...Likewise the executables in bin should be placed in suitable
directories:
host, netstat, ftp, telnet, tcptest, trpt, netdebug, [ftpfilter,]
*hdb, ndb_* in /bin or /usr/bin
mkgate, {mkhost,} netinit, {prhost,} netser, ftpsrv,
rvrfpt, smtpsrv, smtp, mailer, netreset in /etc/net
The missing asm.sed took us a while to figure out, until someone (me!)
realized that 'insque' and 'remque' are Vax instructions....
Other than the above, we've had no trouble yet.

P.S. I'm sure of asm.sed; the others are from some chicken scratchings
on a copy of the Installation Guide, so they're a bit suspect.
