Our apollos had 9.7.5 (or was is it 6?) with SYS5 Domain/IX istalled with
ethernet before Mentor went to SR10.1. This was with Mentor version 6.1. 
You can install either the Aegis TCP/IP or the BSD TCP/IP.  We used the BSD
one and it _did_ have all the expected stuff like telnet and ftp. I can't
remember if it had inetd but I think it did.

Telnet and ftp were both buggy but they sort of worked.

I'm sorry that I can't be more accurate....
