We create applications for systems running a real-time operating
system very closely based on XINU.
We are now interested in "opening" up the systems, by linking to
networks using media such as Ethernet, and also by providing
X-Windows graphical interfaces (see following article).
For this, it seems TCP/IP is crucial. We have studied
"Internetworking with XINU" carefully, and would like to know if
anyone has fully implemented TCP for XINU. Is there an evolving
body of XINU-based TCP software somewhere?
Does anyone who has implemented TCP have any words of wisdom for
how long it would take to get a fast version up and running for our
real-time applications?
How big is the executable code? How much processing power would it
take (approximately, 16 bit 68000).
Thanks for your help,
Ken Tough
