Some questions for anyone familiar with the DLI Ethernet interface
provided with DECnet-Ultrix.

How can I obtain the Ethernet address of a given interface?  
Is it possible to enable promiscuous-mode reception, and if so, how?
Is there a better (software) interface available for Ultrix?

Any suggestions welcome.
