Uh, that's actually a TCP/SLIP implementation. That's not what most
people mean when they ask for TCP/IP.

There is also a real TCP/IP for the Amiga, from a company called
Ameristar. They sell ethernet boards (slap-on-the-side, Zorro I and
Zorro II, so I hear) and TCP/IP to run on them. The software is
available seperately, and version 1.1 was supposed to have SLIP.

The software package also includes NFS - or at least the client half
of it.

I've lost their phone number. If someone would post it again, I'd
appreciate it.
