port of 2.9 to pro350

	We are trying to get some form of TCP/IP
running on our DEC pro350's.  We have the Digital
ethernet controller for the pc's and had intended
on running VENIX V2.0 because we were informed that
it would support TCP/IP.  Now that V2 is on the
market, it does not support that protocol.  Digital
informed us to look at 'fussion', but futher
investigation showed us that they support V2 of
VENIX, but use the 3com controller.
	I heard at USENIX in Denver, that a few 
folks were trying to port Berkley UNIX 2.9 to a
pro350 and run that version of TCP/IP.
	Has anyone more information reguarding that
possibility?  We are running 4.2 on a 780 and would
like to net some of our pro350's , but had hoped
that we could find some way to use the controllers
that were already purchased.
	If the port of 2.9 is possible, is there a
driver available for the DEC controller?
	Any additional information or enlightenment
would be greatly appreciated.

	Please mail responses to me.

	Thanks in advance.
