A friend at work told me the following:

	Tell him there are several vendors with ethernet boards for the AT
	(3COM, Interlan, CMC and Excelan are those I remember without looking
	them up).  There are also TCP/IP implementations available for XENIX.
	The Excelan board has a XENIX driver and runs TCP/IP on the board.
	NRC has XENIX drivers as well.  The CMC board is another intelligent
	board with TCP/IP on-board.  I don't remember if XENIX is supported
	or not but I would assume so.  Also, the Wollongong Group may have a
	XENIX implementation.
