Speaking of OSI stacks, I know 4.4BSD Lite came with some fragments of
one. OSI's dead and hardly mourned these days, but did anyone in the
Unix world ever get beyond the 4.4BSD fragmentary implementation?
The Wollongong Group has OSI for various flavors of Sustem V and System III running on the 3B* family, 386 and a few others. I recall setting them up for interop in the summer of 1989.
