At 9.7.x you've got to buy tcp/ip as a optional product. 
There's two versions, one for aegis, one for bsd4.2
domain/ix. THe bsd version, of course, requires you to
first install bsd domain/ix. I'd say you're stuck with the
aegis configuration unless you can move to a later release
of the OS, say 10.3 where tcp/ip is included as part of the
OS.
