Scott) >From ucbvax!cithep!mlb Fri Jul 10 17:32 PDT 1981 We have two DUP-11 drivers. One is a modified version of the UCSF driver, used with the 200UT protocol software which does RJE to CDC sites. I'm pretty sure that this is a `sensible' driver, i.e. all it basically does is move data to/from the device, with most of the protocol stuff done up at user level. There may be a bit of 200UT-dependent stuff in the driver, but it's pretty minimal, if I recall correctly. The other driver we have is the one that we'll be using to talk HASP to IBM sites. We haven't had a chance to bring it up yet, so I don't know how well it works. It came from the Princeton plasma physics group. Unfortunately, it's a `messy' driver, in that a lot of the protocol function is imbedded in the driver itself. On the other hand, if these people want to talk to an IBM site, this one may actually be more useful. Let me know if anyone's interested in either or both. -------
