[TUHS] If not Linux, then what?

[Clem Cole]

If that's the MIPs code base, it is likely to not be there.  I could be
forgetting something, but I remember that DECnet was released for the MIPS
products.   It was on Tru64 and Ultrix, but is a 'layered product' so you
needed a license to install it and it needed to be a late enough version
that had switched to exposing a full OSI stack.

That said, I do not remember/know how well it functioned talking to any OSI
stack other than DECs.
