Yes, I too had problems with sockets on a dn3000, I didn't have
time to solve the problem (get the uw server running) and I never
got back to it (the real world interfered).  

My dn3000 was running (sr9.6) bsd4.2.

The code I was compiling had previously compiled with no problems 
on a BSD4.3 VAX 11/780.

Now that you remind me, I would like to get back to trying to get
uw on the Apollo...but it on hinges figuring out why it dies in the
same place.
