5224.0. "UCX 4.2 IFT1 is slouching towards Bethleham" by LADDIE::TIBBERT (Lee Tibbert, DTN 226-6115) Thu Feb 13 1997 21:13

or at least towards LKG. 


I know that people on the Enet like to know what is coming, so that
they can plan/anticipate.

UCX 4.2 IFT1 is scheduled to contain PPP (Point-to-Point protocol, successor to
Slip (Serial line Protocol) uniprocessor Alpha OVMS >= 7.1 only),
RMT/RCD server (Remote magnetic tape/CD server), SMTP improvements,
NFS client mount changes, and a vast number of fixed bugs.

The kit is currently undergoing qualification (functional/regression testing).
No promises, but I hope to see it on the Enet in about three weeks.
(If it take longer than that, it means that enough defects were found
so that you would not have wanted the kit anyway ;-])

I hope this peaks some interest.

The big lie: FDDI is dead because it doesn't scale
The bigger lie: Ethernet won't support future applications
The biggest lie: ATM is ready to replace Ethernet to the desktop and FDDI
	in the backbone.

But hey, someone needs to take the arrows in the back.

    I think your apologies go to W.B. Yeats and not T.S. Eliot if my
    failing memory serves correctly.

Thanks for the correction, the devil is in the details.

Sigh, what is American education coming to?

(I also misspelt Bethlehem..)
