To an extent that's inevitable, because so much of the networking world in general is becoming IP- and Ethernet-centric. But I too find it regrettable and possibly dangerous. One of my copious-spare-time projects is to dig up enough specs to add a DECnet stack to my systems; based on my experience with DECnet under Ultrix, I think it would be a good test case for dealing with some of the IPisms. (It wouldn't help much with Ethernet; DECnet does support serial links, but NetBSD already has two network interfaces that support IP over serial links too.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
