Can anyone please provide me with information regarding the status of the following API's? TLI - Transport Layer Interface. NLI - Network Layer Interface DLI - Datalink Interface I believe they were defined by AT&T for Unix environments and perhaps proposed in industry standard forums (UI?). However I would like to know (particularly for NLI and DLI): What is there acceptance status? Where are the specs available from? What implementations are available? Are they applicable to non-Unix environments? Please email info as postings take a long time to filter down here. I'll summarize if there is sufficient interest. Thanks in anticipation, Paul Bandler ACUS - Australian Centre for Unisys Software Fax: +61-3-267-4692
