<<Hello ! I need to write a socket program under the existing TCP/IP
protocol on an HP/3000 MPE. Did anybody do anything like this? I want to
use this to send messages back and forth from a PC to a HP3000
application.>>
 
HP3000 NetIPC sockets talk to PC sockets great. So do Berkeley sockets.
NetIPC sockets are somewhat more flexible, whereas the BSD-style sockets
are faster to get up if you're porting existing BSD-type code.
 
<<What manual deals with this?>>
 
 "NetIPC 300/XL Programmer's Reference Manual", 36920-61005. "Berkeley
Sockets/iX Reference Manual", 32650-90372.
 
<<What else can I read?>>
 
Can't think of anything offhand that would be specific to the HP end.
Most BSD-oriented socket books/manuals would be applicable for BSD-type
sockets.
 
<<Does anybody have sample code? Any help, hints, points will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks!>>
 
I have sources for NetIPC stuff in C.
