At XEROX there is a package which runs under VMS which talks to
either a 3Mb (XEROX PARC controller) or 10Mb (Interlan) controller
talking either PUP or XNS protocols... It is being sold to the outside world
now, although I do not know all the details.  Contact
BKorbholz.ES@PARC-MAXC

Under UNIX there is 3Mb stuff that runs on 4.1 and is not yet (that I
know of) up under 4.2.  ACC sells a package for XNS, although I do
not know the details, nor do I know of anyone who uses it with
XEROX's VMS implementation.

It is being sold to the outside world now, although I do not know all the
details.  

Also, I believe that ACC will sell you a complete package with both the
VMS and UNIX end.  They like to sell their hardware; I do not know if
they support any other.  This package runs XNS over 10Mb ether.
