(re: AMDAHL's UTS)
> How about ethernet and TCP/IP?

Actually, good question. We run WISCNET thru a DACU (ethernet) on our
3090. It appears to me that at the lowest level all we would need to
access TCP/IP from UTS would be a VMCF library. Is there any work
going on to do this? VMCF access would be minimal necessary, obviously
a higher level library supporting UCB sockets etc would allow us to
port higher level applications quickly, tho I guess we could write it
if we had to. What about anything resembling ptys?
