[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] Pronet-4 Interface

jaj@crash.acc.virginia.edu (James A. Jokl) (11/16/87)

Does anyone have (or is anyone working on) a driver for the
Proteon pronet-4 token ring interface?  I would be happy
with any derivative of the MIT PC-IP package or NCSA telnet.

FTP Software sells a ProNET-4 versions of PC/TCP; works on either the
Proteon p1340 or p1344. You ought to be able to buy it from Proteon too,
I think. PC/TCP is our version of PC/IP; when I left MIT to work on this stuff
commercially we renamed it to avoid confusion.

We sell code for this interface, as does Proteon.   I don't know of any
public-domain drivers for it.  It is not a particularly simple card to
run.  An alternative is to use their TOKREUI emulation, if you have
something that calls that interface.

James,
Proteon is working on the driver for the ProNET-4 for the FTP package.  I
expect this driver would be a good starting place for the MIT software.  
Perhaps jbvb can answer if this is the case.
