Looking for TCP, XTP, VMTP Sources

I am looking for the sources for various transport level protocols, such
as TCP, XTP, and VMTP.  Any pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.
Please feel free to respond via email.  Thanks.

	I don't know where you can get TCP, XTP, VMTP sources for free.  Since XTP is owned by Protocol Engine Inc, you can contact them for the source.  However, I believe
that you have to be TAB member to have to source.  Good luck.

Small clarification: Only one particular implementation of XTP -- the
"Kernel Reference Model" (XTP/KRM) -- is owned/sold by Protocol Engines.
The XTP protocol itself and its specification are in the public domain.
Anyone at all is free to create their own implementation. [For a free copy
of the XTP spec, send your surface-mail address to "xtp-request@pei.com".]

While it is true that most of the other implementations we've heard of
have also been by XTP TAB members (who get the KRM free as part of their
membership fee), at least one implementation has been done by a non-TAB
member, working only from the spec.

TCP/IP can be found at any large archive site that keeps the BSD updates. At 
least the should be at uunet.uu.net. They are also included in Steve Deering's
Multicast IP implementation which you need for running VMTP under UNIX. Both
VMTP and MIP can be collected from gregorio.stanford.edu. There is a mailing
list for vmtp-ip, send messages to vmtp-ip-request@gregorio.stanford.edu.
