This was what I based some of my code on. there is some VERY small TCP/IP code (6502 assembler) as part of AS/OS65 which as an entire OS fits in something like 20K. The assember code wouldn't be overly useful in and of itself, but it would be interesting as an example of how to implement a very small tcp/ip stack. I don't have the URL off hand for the OS web site, but if anybody is interested I could find it.

Elks Networking
Hello, I noticed that someone mentioned that he was starting work on the TCP/IP stuff for Elks. There is a webpage which lists tons of relevant TCP/IP and networking stuff. It's at www.qnx.com/~mphunter/tcpip_resources.html. It's pretty interesting. -Joseph Dunn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I was wondering if it would be possible to port Linux's TCP/IP software to ELKS. If there's any way I can help, I'd be glad to. -Joseph Dunn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
ELKS Networking
I've finally started work on ELKS TCP/IP. So far I've been making an ne2000 driver, but I've got some books and stuff and I think its do-able. Does anyone want to help? Luke(Boo) Farrar.
