	ULTRIX-32 rev1.1 will support the 725/RC25 combination.
	You will also find a 30% performance improvement over rev1.0/
	4.2BSD due to name idnode cashing and doubly-linked proc cues.
	It will also support DECnet on the same ethernet as TCP/IP.
	DECnet is a layered product... (DEC charges extra bucks).
	It does make an ULTRIX system look like a phase IV end node.
	There are utilities for file copying, dlogin etc. (including
	database access).

	If your are interested, mail me off-line for more info.
