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. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
