In ULTRIX V4.0, LAT automaticly adds an ifaddr to all usable interfaces.
This is enought to start them up (it's also enough for DLI/MOP).  This means
yuou don't have to run IP or DECnet if you don't want to.

Another feature is that you can use ttyXX instead of /dev/ttyXX.  (If name
alone doesn't exist, then /dev/ is prepended and the new name is checked.
