Good Evening. Welcome to a nightmare come true.

I am going to try to implement lrL, short for lo-rent LAN, on my system V
VAX with Intel Bit-Bus controllers (8044's). BitBus basically implements all
the ethernet transport stuff (such as addressing, acknowlegement, collision
detect and resolution) with a $22 chip and a RS-485 twisted pair. This seems
like a such a deal. Has anybody done this before? Is it possible to obtain
and gimmick for system V any of the nifty Berkley/ARPA network control stuff
(FTP, SMTP, Telnet, etc) with this setup? Any recommendations on
books/literature on LAN's? (The degree is in Chemical Engineering, not CS/EE)

		Yours from the zone,
		P.J. Kerrigan
