I have received a few enquiries about where one can get PC/IP for the IBM PC, from my article about putting a remote filesystem on MINIX using ethernet, so I thought I would make a general posting out of it. This stuff all though contains almost certainly out of date prices is still valid as far as the addresses go: PC/IP is an implementation of Arpanet's IP and UDP protocol over ethernet or serial line plus a basic version of TCP, TFTP, and several other services. All this is designed to run on the IBM PC under DOS operating system. It is available to be distributed as long as the MIT copyrights are maintained in the source code and MIT's name is not used to advirtise any product based on unless pemission is obtained. Places you can order PC/IP from: (correct as of 3/April/86) (1) MIT: (compiled under their own C cross compiler) pair of diskettes $44 or full tar tape of binaries and sources $55: MIT Microcomputer Center Room 11-209 77 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139 Phone (617) 253-6325 or via anonymous FTP from borax.lcs.mit.edu, in which case they ask you send mail to pcip-release@borax.lcs.mit.edu so they can keep you upto date with bug fixes. (2) CMU PC/IP: (PC/IP ported to Microsoft C) Drew Perkins co Carnegie-Mellon University 4910 Forbes Ave. Pittsburg,PA 15213 or anonymous FTP, password guest, from "vd.cc.cmu.edu". (3) Dartmouth College: (Ported to Apple Macintosh - Not IBM PC) Mark Sherman Computer Network Laboratory Depatment of Mathematics and Computer Science Dartmouth College Hanover, NH 03755 Ph: (603) 646 2415 mss@dartmouth.csnet IBM is also distributing a supported binary version for serveral $100 US based on this. You sould contact them for further information. (4?) University of Melbourne, Australia: (Straight PC/IP) We are possibly willing to distribute this for a small fee about $50 in Australia or New Zealand only. Write to us first for details. e-mail address: andrew@mulga.oz Attention: Andrew Worsley Department of Computer Science, Melbourne University, Parkville, 3052.

Another package I would strongly suggest be considered by anyone wanting to port TCP/IP into Minix would be Phil Karn KA9Q's NET.EXE package for MS-Dos, which I have been helping work on for a while. It is smaller, somewhat "cleaner" in terms of code style, and in a certain sense, more in keeping with the "Minix philosophy". I've got a background task going now to get it integrated with Minix, but would *love* to have someone else send me working code! The bits are available most reliably from my BBS, at 303/593-0766, up to 2400 baud, almost 24 hrs/day. No restrictions on first time callers that would prevent your grabbing all the sources even at 1200. The bits are also generally available via anonymous FTP from the machine louie.udel.edu. -- Bdale Garbee, N3EUA phone: 303/593-9828 h, 303/590-2868 w uucp: {bellcore,crash,hp-lsd,hpcsma,ncc,pitt,usafa,vixie}!winfree!bdale fido: sysop of 128/19 packet: n3eua @ k0hoa, Colexp(strumattNo

I can shar it and send it to any interested parties. Note: It's *quite* large. According to the README file, it's designed to be compiled under Aztec C. This particular copy may be slightly altered, since we were trying to port it to an AT&T 3B2 (usuccessfully to date -- what a horrid machine the 3B2 is), but I don't think so. Takers? Be *sure* to give me a good path, preferably ARPAnet if you can do it. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Jim Frost * The Madd Hacker | UUCP: ..!harvard!bu-cs!bucsb!madd H H | ARPA: madd@bucsb.bu.edu H-C-C-OH <- heehee +---------+---------------------------------- H H | "We are strangers in a world we never made"

This is now available from minix-server@bugs.nosc.mil under the pseudo Message-Ids karn0@bugs.nosc.mil thru karn7@bugs.nosc.mil . Also the 1.2 diffs and sources are here on bugs. The compatibility list has not much new in it. To review: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: archive service on bugs.nosc.mil Keywords: automatic mail archive server Message-ID: <690@cod.UUCP> Date: 20 May 87 19:22:17 GMT An archive retrieval service for old comp.os.minix articles is set up on bugs.nosc.mil using E-mail. Everything available to anonymous FTP in directory pub/Minix can be obtained by sending a mailed request to minix-server@bugs.nosc.mil or nosc!minix-server . Include in the message, either among the header fields or the body, a line like: Reply-To: <your mail address> and following that a line or lines naming desired files e.g.: send compatibility send SUBJECTS send 1180@botter.cs.vu.nl to get an automatic mailed reply. Your mail address should look something like one of these examples: you@stolaf.uucp cs.vu.nl!giant@seismo.css.gov person%utoronto.bitnet@wiscvm.wisc.edu user%ulowell.csnet@relay.cs.net honcho%durham.mailnet@mit-multics.arpa . FTP should happen during off-hours only. E-mail is not free, either; abuse of the system will cause bad karma. Contents may have settled during shipment.
