    I'm in the process of porting some software from a Sun 3/75 to an
    HP 9000/300.  The biggest problem I've encountered thus far is finding
    a lot of the .h system files on the HP that are on the Sun.  I've in-
    cluded below what differnces I've noted thus far, which are by no means
    the last.  Several problems revolve around the lack of many files which
    are normally in /usr/include/netinet.

	What's different between the HP and Sun
	---------------------------------------

    1. /usr/include/sys/time.h exists on the Sun but doesn't on the HP.
       It was deleted and /usr/include/time.h was used exclusively.

    2. sys/ttychars.h exists on the Sun but doesn't on the HP.  It was
       deleted and /usr/include/sys/termio.h was used.

    3. /usr/include/sys/ttydev.h exists on the Sun but doesn't on the HP,
       it was simply deleted from the gated Makefile.

    4. /usr/include/netinet/in_systm.h exists on the Sun but not on the HP.
       It is the first of several netinet files which I cannot find on the
       HP.


    In addition, I've ported some code which uses TCP sockets for IPC.
    I tried to use the libBSD.a to get the bzero, et. al. functions, but
    couldn't.  The diagnostic from the HP C compiler complained about un-
    resolved globals (bzero).  I finally got it to work by including the
    full pathname of /usr/lib/libBSD.a to be compiled with the other object
    files.  The "-lBSD" argument to cc didn't work, even though my reading
    of the cc man page indicates that it should.  Any help with this problem
    as well as the missing files mentioned above would be of great help.

    Thanks,
