I'm the system administrator for a Unisys 6000/70 running dynix/PTX 1.1,
and I need a socket library for the machine.  I was wondering if anyone
out there had written a standard socket library to run on top of streams?

A version running under PTX would be great, but any such pacakage would 
be welcome, or failing that any advice about how to write one would be
helpful.

Anyone know why PTX excluded a socket library? Seems like a useful thing
to have.  At any rate, I've been told PTX 2.0 will have a socket library
again, but I need to put something in place until PTX 2.0 is released.

Thanks, in advance.
