Missed the reply all on the phone.  Phil Karn had KA9Q in the 80s...  It is mentioned on
Wikipedia... Don't know much more.  PPP might be better than slip.

  I read the sources to see the TCP/IP support was
there (that's the bit
 about adding Berkeley Sockets). I see nowhere that it's excluded for the
 non I/D machines, but haven't tried it first hand. I got interested not
 because of the PDP-11, but because I have an old Rainbow that recently
 started running Venix (v7-based version) and was trolling around for some
 way to do TCP/IP to it (though w/o readily available ethernet cards, I'm
 not sure it is a viable project). 
 Boy is the memory going.  What was the TCP/IP implementation people
 ran on DOS to do connections over serial lines?  Could that be found
 and revived for such a system?

 Thanks,
