I noticed a note a few months ago that Van Jacobson's new TCP code was available from berkeley.edu via anonymous ftp. I do not have internet access and was wondering if I could get it via uucp (or could someone send it to me ??). Any assistance or information would be GREATLY appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Andrews Systems Programmer, Alias Research, Toronto, Canada 1-(416)-362-9181 alias!mark@utcsri.uucp

The Van Jacobson stuff on ucbarpa.berkeley.edu has improvements for dealing with congested networks. (Slow-start, re-transmission timer, etc.) If you're not on the Internet, you probably don't have congested connections and don't need it. If you are running SunOS 4.0, you already have it.

And I've seen cases when the new code would work with badly designed old Ethernet controllers (need I name names? except to say they're for really small hosts) when nothing else would. So it's good to have, regardless. Rob Warnock Systems Architecture Consultant UUCP: {amdcad,fortune,sun}!redwood!rpw3 DDD: (415)572-2607 USPS: 627 26th Ave, San Mateo, CA 94403
