[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Help Wanted - TCP/IP -> Sys V

robert@psych.psy.uq.oz (Robert Dal Santo) (06/04/87)

	We are running System V.2 on a Perkin Elmer 3210. PE's port
of Sys V is called Xelos.

	We have just purchased a Micro Vax II and want to get the two talking
over an ethernet.

	PROBLEM.

	The PE doesnt talk TCP/IP, and we have sources for Xelos, but not
for Ultrix, so we want to get pseudo TCP/IP on the PE under Sys V (Xelos).
The easiest would be to get an intelligent TCP/IP ethernet board, but thats
unlikely. The other possibility is to 'graft' TCP/IP into our Sys V kernel.
This looks to be no minor task.

	Is there anyone out there who has grafted TCP/IP into a Sys V
kernel ? Even a partial graft, as we would be quite happy if we could just
copy files between the two machines, and we could build from there.

	Please respond by E-mail.

Thanks,

I thought PE was now selling TCP/IP as an option for both their
System V and older operating system.
