[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] Summary: TFTP implementation for OS/2

plim@vaxc.ARPA (Pean Lim) (08/17/89)

A few weeks ago I posted the following query:

  Do any TFTP implementations for OS/2, that run on an Ethernet,
  exist? Thanks in advance for any information.

Thanks to all who replied.  Some of you may want to see the
collection of responses I received:

Hello,

 I've seen in InfoWeek that Racal-interlan
 has an implementation of TCP/IP for OS/2.

 Also, Microsoft advertises LM/X which
 is suppose to a TCP/IP  implementation that
 is compatible with the OS/2 Lan Manager.

 I've been trying to get information about
 both of these products and have not succeeded
 as of yet...

 I'd appreciate any information about OS/2 and TCP/IP
 that you may gather.

  Take care,

As of this instant, I don't know of any that are commercially available.
A fellow in Europe has ported the IBM TCP/IP package (derived from PC-IP)
to OS/2, and it included a TFTP.  We are working on an OS/2 package, and
as an intermediate step, put our 1.16 version up on OS/2 (this doesn't
allow multiple applications to be active at once, so we hadn't intended
to sell it).  Our 1.16 does include a TFTP.  We can use any NDIS (DIS)
conforming Ethernet driver.

Excelan's Lan Work Place for OS/2 will have the TFTP implementation...
The product will ship in a month or two...

	I've ported Berkeley's networking code to OS/2 and it includes
tftp; however, I'm not sure when (and how) I will be distributing it.
Probably something will happen in the next few months.
