Subject: Re: [TUHS] Fwd: Choice of Unix for 11/03 and 11/23+ Systems
V6, as distributed, had no networking at all. There are two V6 systems with
networking in TUHS:

https://minnie.tuhs.org//cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=BBN-V6
The first is an 'NCP' Unix (unless unless you have an ARPANet); the second is
a fairly early TCP/IP from BBN (ditto, out of the box; although one could write
an Ethernet driver for it).
There's also a fairly nice Internet-capable V6 (well, PWB1, actually) from MIT
which I keep meaning to upload; it includes SMTP, FTP, etc, etc. I also have
visions of porting an ARP I wrote to it, and bringing up an Ethernet driver
for the DEQNA/DELQA, but I've yet to get to any of that.
There's a "v6net" directory in this repository.

I accidentally found it all when searching from something completely
different the other day.
I wonder if it is from either of the two ports you mention.
