Yes, we have a VAX implementation of the ND protocol.

The code runs on a VAX 11/750 (4.2BSD) and allows the VAX to diskserve 
SUN-2/50's.  At present we have 2 SUN's using the VAX for booting,
paging, and fileserving.  (The same code also makes it possible for
the VAX to be a client off a SUN!)

Details from me (elman@nprdc, ucbvax!sdcsvax!sdamos!elman) or the
author, Dave Pare (mr-frog@ucsd, ucbvax!sdcsvax!sdamos!mr-frog).
