Last week I posted a request for pointers to a 2.9bsd with TCP/IP for

have excerpted several of the relevant messages below:

The PRO-350/380 kernels we're running were on the Usenix 85.1 tape as
contributed by Rick Macklem of the University of Guelph, Ontario.
[...]  Rick's stuff includes a console, comm port, lp port, rx50,
rd50/51 and an ra (for QBus machines) driver.  [...]

One thing that may be of interest to someone out there is that i have
2.9bsd unix working on a pro350 and the tcp/ip part working for the
11/23 and up. If anyone with an A.T.&T. license wants it, they are
welcome.  [...]
