Someone asked the question of how we are integrating PC lans into the Internet
world.  Because the KA9Q code has such a complete tcp implementation, we
have written a Netbios driver for it, that allows it to be run over a
netbios network such as Novell. We utilize a PC as a gateway from the
PC net  to the campus ethernet. This will allow stations on the PC net to
telnet and ftp to our campus hosts etc.  In addition, the PC net doesn't have
to be ethernet, but rather any network that supports the Netbios '5C'
interface.

I don't have any performance characteristics yet, but have just utilized
it on small PC Lans.

This is not derived from the Netbios implementation that Ying-Da Lee
of Univ. of Wisc. has developed for the CMU code. His product offers
a way to integrate the CMU PCIP code into a PC lan environment.
