[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] TCP/IP for Prime PRIMOS Machines

dorl@vms.macc.wisc.edu (Michael Dorl - MACC) (07/12/89)

We have a couple of Prime machines that want to join the campus
IP network.  They run PRIMOS.  Prime tells us we need LHC-300
Ethernet controllers, TCP/IP software, and a mail user agent such
as PDN Mail from Prime Custom Systems.

I'd like to hear from anyone using or knowledgable about this 
hardware and software.  How well does it work?  What alternatives
exist?

What facilities are provided? 

 telnet client?  server?

 ftp client?  server?

 smtp client?  server?

 ping client?  ping server?

 unix r commands?

 news support?

 snmp support?

 routed?

Any advice or comments appreciated.

Thanks,
