The authoritative doc. on x.25 is the CCITT Recommendation on X.25 itself.
In the USA you can order one of those from Omnicom in Vienna, VA.

A good computer book on X.25 is "X.25 Explained" by Deasington.
I remember seeing it listed in some of those computer book clubs.
There are not too many general publications on the subject.

If you're ready to develop x.25 software for commercial use,
you can order documentation from the network provider such as Tymnet
or Telenet. For instance, Telenet has a large (>300 pp) document
listing protocols, options, tests, etc.

As for public domain x.25 software, I haven't seen any.


	Best of luck,
