I have a 386 machine (AT@T 6386E WGS) with UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2, which I would like to put on the Internet network. Unfortunately, so far I have been unable to locate a FTP host with a public domain software - STREAMS based TCP/IP with FTP and Telnet. Does anybody in the UNIX world have any knowledge about the existence of such a package or is my search futile ? From the vendors guide, which I have FTP'ed from sri-nic.arpa (via bitftp@pucc), and from the discussions with wizards, I have learnt that there are some commercial packages which would do the job. For example, Wollongog's WIN/386, Lachman's System V Streams TCP, and Microport's TCP/IP. Would any kind soul care to comment on their advantages and their drawbacks ? (I am planning to purchase Western Digital WD8003E card.) Please reply directly, I will summarize if there is interest. Thank you, Bogdan P.S. I HAVE SEND THE SAME NOTE TO THE INFO-UNIX GROUP. I HOPE NOT TO BREAK THE NET ETIQUETTE BY POSTING IT HERE TOO. Bogdan Z. Dlugogorski Ecole Polytechnique (Genie Chimique) e-mail: dh01@polytec1.bitnet Case postale 6079, succ.
