I think I need a definition of some terms: Both VMS and UNIX support Ethernet. DECNet/VMS sits on top of Ethernet for VMS. Is TCP/IP the upper level protocol for Unix Ethernets? Or is TCP/IP a packet-switched long haul protocol (a la ARPANET?) If TCP/IP is a long-haul, what is the term for the upper level protocols for a Unix Ethernet? Thanks, KC cowan@udel-relay
