[In answer to Mark Eggers' questions]

> Could you send me more information ?? 
Yes.

> What language, 
C.

> how much CPU does it use (on average), 
I haven't checked into this yet.  We're running under VMS 4.2 and
it run as one *big* task.  CPU cycles aren't a big deal, memory
might be on some systems.

Yes, DECnet, ARP, and IP each have unique Ethernet protocol types.

Eventually, I plan to send the changes to Bdale Garbee at 
winfree.n3eua.ampr.  I still have some work to do, though.

As noted above, we're using VMS, and my changes to the KA9Q package
were *very* VMS specific, so I'm not sure we can help.

You are welcome.
