    this is a tad patronizing, and also incorrect. CMU-TEK TCP/IP is not 
free, but is damned cheap. it works fine; it's the main tcp/ip package 
in use on my two clusters (telnet, ftp, mail, lpr/lpd, and the like). 
it's not a cadillac like multinet, but in terms of value for your (our) 
dollar it's unbeatable.
