I have a colleague who needs to know the effort required to port TCPtrace to an HP 3000. I don't know if there's some showstoppers in the kernel arrangement that would prevent this from being easy. I assume IP is similar enough to make that portion a wash. Please write me directly. Walt Lazear lazear@gateway.mitre.org

Or did you really mean 9000? The 3000 runs one of two versions of the MPE OS (MPE/V for the 'classic' h/w and MPE/XL for the 'spectrum' (new whizzy risc ;-) h/w. It's TCP/IP is an in-house implementation that does not look at all like standard BSD TCP/IP. It also uses NetIPC and not BSD sockets, so the interface to the transport layer is not the same... It's the 9000 that runs the BSD bits... rick jones ___ _ ___ |__) /_\ | Richard Anders Jones | MPE/XL Networking Engineer | \_/ \_/ Hewlett-Packard Co. | (;place deprication here;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Being an employee of a Standards Company, all Standard Disclaimers Apply
