We currently have two 4.2bsd vaxen on an Ethernet in our building.
Sometime this summer, one VAX will be moved to a building a few hundred
yards down the street, and each building will have its own Ethernet.
We'd like to have as fast a link as possible between the two Ethernets.
If anyone out there has a similar set up, we'd like to know how you
did it.  We shouldn't have trouble getting a leased line (maybe even T1)
between buildings.

Also, has anyone implemented logical subnets in 4.2bsd, so the two Ethers
and whatever connects them can share a single network number?

Please respond by mail, and I'll summarize to the net if there is interest.
