There is Dennis' sync serial product (look at commercial products
at html://www.freebsd.org -- the FreeBSD web page).

There is the Net/2 and 4.4-Lite/Lite2 X.25 code via the ISO protocols.

You will need a sync serial card.  I've done X.25 several times in
the past using the PC Appletalk cards.  They are basically Zilog
USARTS, like on Sun machines (the NetBSD SPARC port serial driver is
agood start for them), which means they do sync and async, etc.  They
are much better parts than the Intel UARTS, actually.

There is no "canned" soloution, unless Dennis's sync serial cards
support them.

I believe there are X.29 PAD services in the BSD code, so that should
save a bit of work.

If you need more info, you will have to ask others.
