I think that Beame & Whiteside's commercial version also gets everything out of memory when it's finished, and that Phil Karn's KAQ9, NCSA Telnet and ...oops. I spaced on it. I think there's another one I left out. For the sake of completeness, the ones that do stay resident are the Excelan EXOS 205, the Ungermann-Bass NIU, the Micom-Interlan NP600, and a package from CMC whose name I can't remember (those are all smart cards which use up a little bit of main memory); Network Research Corporation's FUSION; and Sun's PC/NFS. I don't think any of these implementations are related to PC/IP, though most of them are probably descendants of the 4.2BSD Unix TCP. That's a *lot* of different TCP's you can get. Does anyone keep track of them all? - john -------
