You might want to consider a host-based implementation. The only one
out there that I know of is by Streamlined Networks. I used it running
under Bell Technologies UNIX System V and it worked quite well. It had
all the standard BSD stuff.

With a good ethernet board (like the Western Digital WD8003), I
wouldn't be surprised if the Streamlined Networks TCP running on the
386 outperformed what you'd get from a smart board, which is likely to
only have an 80186 or such on it.

The latest ad I've seen is in the December issue of UNIX Review.

Their address is:
	Streamlined Networks
	PO Box 14763
	Fremont, CA  94539
	(415) 659-1450

I have no association with them whatsoever.
