This is for the SUN2 workstation, and is the SUN counterpart to the VAX driver. The driver has been in beta-test for 6-8 weeks now and appears to be working quite well. Its throughput rates with Revision C boards are equivalent to or a little better than that of SUN's Ethernet driver for the 3Com board. I would prefer it if people who want the driver join the v2lni-people mailing list (since that is where any and all bugfixes will appear) but if this is not feasible, let me know and I'll mail a copy direct. Also, if anyone volunteers to act as a relay to USENET's net.sources, I'll send a copy there too. Respond to me directly please.....
