	Does anybody have any documents on HP's PXP protocol and
	socket registery used by NetIPC ? I'v found some description on
	PXP packets from HP9000's .h files in /usr/include/netinet.
	I have also examined some network traces to find out how PXP
	works. As a result, I now know the general guidelines how
	PXP works, but there are a lot of black holes ... I have 
	so far found no packet descriptions or anything else for the
	socket registery.

	I'm asking this, since I'm going to build a tiny version
	of NetIPC protocol for OS/2 (since it is not available from HP).
	The TCP/IP part of NetIPC already works.

	I'd appreciate any help on this subject. (Please reply by mail
	to ats@lut.fi)
