The last time I checked, the only thing Prime had (other than Primenet)
was TCP/IP over x.25. I guess you could put an x.25 interface on one of
your unix boxes (Sun has one), or use an x.25 to E-net gateway (Bridge
Communications, etc ~$10k).
I believe that Prime also introduced Primenet for the IBM/PC, so you might
be able to kludge something there.
All we have at the moment for our two primes is a TCP terminal server backed
up as a milking machine, but let us know if you find something interesting.
