Here is the summary of Cheap TCP-IP implementations for VAX/VMS:

I receieved about 15 responses pointing me towards CMU/TEK TCP-IP,
a few people thought that it was painful to get working and that
they thought Multinet was cheaper in terms of their time. Several
people recommended CMU/TEK as a very solid alternative to Wollengong,
TGV et al, although they thought that CMU didn't scale well on a large 
machine.

For this price I'm going to try it and see how things go, if it 
doesn't do exactly what we need at least we should be able to do something  
until we can budget the money for a commercial TCP.

Here is a typical response...
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CMU/TEK TCP-IP  This is a full-blown implementation, including Telnet,
FTP, SMTP support, LPR and Finger.  It is very stable and well-supported.
