MIT has a package which will get an IBM-PC, XT, or AT on a LAN speaking
TCP/IP.  Supported interfaces are Proteon proNET and 3COM or Interlan
ethernet.  This provides telnet and tftp.  Contact John Romkey
romkey@borax.lcs.mit.edu (617) 253-6020 for details.  A new company, FTP
Software, will be marketing a newer version of this software which will
support ftp and Berkeleyisms like rlogin, rsh, rcp, etc.  They can be
reached at (617) 497-5066, or P.O.Box 150, Kendall Square Branch,
Cambridge MA  02142.

This is one of the faster TCP/IP implementations I've seen.  It also
has a complete ICMP layer, unlike Wollongong and several other TCP/IP's
being marketed.
