>>It would seem to me not too difficult in principle to port KIP to run >>on a Ethernet-attached Mac. Hackers of the world? CMU is using IBM ATs and RTs as routers on their campus Ethernet. One could plug the desired interface card in (Ethernet, Token Ring, and maybe DECnet?), link the appropriate drivers into the router code, and *poof*, you'd have a router. Maybe someone should look into combining KIP and their gateway code. Bear in mind that it's been two years since I even looked at that code, or played with one of the routers, and I may be suggesting the impossible. I'm sure someone there will correct me. Tom? Drew? (Heh.) Steve? Someone? -David C.
