I'm trying to hook our MicroVAX II (Q-Bus) into our Unix TCP/IP
network that is running over Ethernet.  I plan on using CMU/Tektronix's
TCP/IP package running on VMS 5.3-1.
My question is: what hardware do I need to make this work?  I know
there are DEQNA and DELQA ethernet boards out there.  Which board
should I use?  Does it make a difference?  Should I use thick-wire
or thin-wire?  Our Unix systems are connected using thin-wire.

I plan on purchasing used hardware, so if you have boards that you
are interested in selling, let me know.

Thanks.
