Are we discussing VAX ULTRIX or risc ULTRIX. If your ULTRIX is on a
DECstation, you should be able to just reverse the byte order. (I
believe that NFS will even do it for you automatically). If, however,
you ULTRIX is on VAX architecture you will need to also convert
between VAX and IEEE floating point. On a DECstation there are the
routines ftoi, itof, dtoi, itod, gtoi and itog that take care of this. I
have also seen programs that run under VMS to do the same things.
There is probably someone out there that already has them under SUNOS.
