They have. It's called "uw", and runs on the Mac, Amiga, and Atari ST. It
requires a BSD system for the host-side program. Then there's DNET for the
Amiga, that talks TCP/IP over a serial port.

Anyone got a System-V version of the "uw" host-side program.

So get a Mac, Amiga, or Atari ST. Preferably the Amiga... DNET is supposedly
pretty hot stuff.
