Ok, great.  There's only one problem.  What if you're running System V Unix?

We have two 3B15's and several 3B2's over here, but no BSD Unix machines.  The
last time that I checked, DNet was very BSD specific.

Is there a version of DNet that works on System V based machines?

Same here.  Also, I'd like to know how the other Amigans in that area are doing.

I kept hearing on the news that Los Gatos was near to the center of the
earthquake.  I also remember hearing that, thankfully, no one was killed there.

Wasn't Commodore/Amiga West Coast located in Los Gatos?
