Our Computer Science department recently received an ATT 3B15, and our College of Science has had several 3B2/400's for a while. They would like some "connectivity" to the outside world. The University Computer Center has VAX computers running VMS with DECnet and TCP/IP (Internet) connections to other campuses. Each could probably swing funding for an Ethernet card, but commercial software is expensive. Are any "free" TCP/IP implementations available for the 3B series of computers? What are other alternatives for connecting 3B's to a VMS/VAX system? Thanks, --michael ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael McGuffey, Senior Software Applications Analyst Phone: 304/696-3212 University Computer Center FAX: 304/696-3601 Marshall University BITNET: mcguffey@muvms1 Huntington, WV 25755-5320 Internet: mcguffey%muvms3@wvnvms.wvnet.edu

TCP/IP software is available for the 3B2 and 3B15 from AT&T. This package
was developed by The Wollengong Group, and is an enhanced 4.2BSD style
implementation (eg. sockets, no subnets, TLI support). It does include
the Berkeley utilities (rsh, rlogin, rcp, sendmail) and routed support.
This package is available through AT&T's University Grant program, and
University discounts are also possible. Contact your local AT&T rep. for
more information on this package, educational discounts, and grant programs.
If you have any specific questions on the implementation, feel free to
contact me.
