CMU-IP from Carnegie Mellon?
With input/improvements/etc from Tektronix. I always referred to it
as CMU/Tek. I don't know the exact history of CMU/Tek but I know we
used it to replace UCX in the days when UCX couldn't do DNS and
updating host files seemed so "old hat". This implies that there was
some version of UCX available quite early on (I'm guessing we did the
move to CMU/Tek in about 1985).
Does anyone know when the first release of Multinet happened? I guess
given that I'm sitting in the middle of probably the largest
concentration of OpenVMS people right now I could just ask the
appropriate person :-)
