We are interested in getting hold of some XNS source to run
on our UNIX system (we have System V and bsd4.2 licences).
Has anybody written anything in the public domain?
I would also be interested to hear from anybody
with experiences (good or bad) with this network protocol under UNIX.
Interlan offers the source for $85K which seems a bit over the top!
(we could write it for much less than that).
PLEASE REPLY BY MAIL - My host isn't receiving netnews.

I'll also reply by mail to this person, but since others might be interested: Maryland has put xns up through spp into the 4.2 kernel, and Cornell is working on Courier and above. We talk regularly to our Dandelions running Star and XDE with this. Eventually it will all be available--you can get the Maryland stuff now as part of the maryland software distribution if you make a special request for the right forms to despina@maryland or bane@maryland. -mark -- Spoken: Mark Weiser ARPA: mark@maryland Phone: +1-301-454-7817 CSNet: mark@umcp-cs UUCP: {seismo,allegra}!umcp-cs!mark USPS: Computer Science Dept., University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742
