Chaosnet driver for Linux
Brad Parker ported an old BSD Chaonet
driver to Linux.
From the README:
Chaosnet was an early networking protocol developed at MIT. Near as I can tell it was developed before TCP/IP, perhaps during the early Arpanet NCP protocol days. The protocol was supported by Symbolics lisp machines as a native networking protocol. Older machines (like my ancient 3600) don't have TCP/IP support but do support Chaosnet on Ethernet. This is a port of some really really old BSD kernel code to modern day linux. I doubt anyone would want this code unless they have some old lisp machines they are playing with... I've tested this code with General 7.2 and 8.3. It allows QFILE transfers back and forth, which was my goal. I also hacked the RTAPE server code to do RTAPE support using a disk file instead of a real file. This is useful for archiving... -bradJust what I was looking for to make some backups.
