- This is your TCP/IP for VMS (MultiNet):
- V3.1 shipping
- SMTP, NFS client, R services, etc, etc, tn3270...

- This is your TCP/IP for VMS on drugs (UCX):
- V1.3A or 1.3 with FTP server security bugs
- Nothing really there, no nameservice... no support...

- Get the message?

- So you asked for an NNTP client and someone gave you THREE,
- and before looking into those you want more??? And you don't
- yet know what software you're running to have TCP/IP so you
- won't be able to build any one of those three anyway... great!
