We have an IBM PC/XT running PC/IX that we'd like to connect to our campus
Ethernet network.
Does anyone know of a good Ethernet board for a PC (also a PC/AT) that
is compatible with the Ethernet on Vaxen and Suns?
Then comes the hard part (now don't laugh): Is there any TCP/IP package
for PC/IX?
Thanks in advance, and if there is enough interest, I'll summarize later.

But their boards also have a 15-pin connector on them for an external transceiver, in case you have to connect to standard Ethernet cable.

in two flavors, one with a transceiver for "thin" cable and one with a
DB-15 connector for an external transceiver. Has anyone had any experience
with the latter? Thanks. Also, I am interested in any TCP/IP protocols
that are available for the PC. Please specify the OS (i.e. PC DOS, Venix,
etc.) I will summarize to the net.

My apologies for the chopped line in the first ariticle (no excuse, sir). My query is directed to the two boards made for the IBM PC by Interlan.
