Our locally improved (hacked?) version of v2 is available for anonymous ftp 
from utah-cs as pub/tarv2.Z and pub/tarv2d.Z (yes, both have been compressed).
The former is the apollo-side code; the latter, the 4.2/4.3BSD end code.  If
you have any problems installing/using it, contact me.  My phone number is
(801) 581-6678 or mail to swanson@utah-cs.

For those of you who aren't aware of what V2 is, it's a distributed filesystem
allowing you to access files on remote 4.2/4.3bsd machines as though they
are part of the Apollo filesystem.  It's built on top of Apollo's 
extensible streams package.  Note you need to be running at least SR9.2
Aegis and TCP/IP to be able to use V2.  [The original V2 is supplied in the
directory /domain_examples/streams/v2; Mark's enhancments include username
authentication and speed improvments]
