The archive does include the complete kernel, but i) the changes aren't listed in any way (I forsee a lot of 'diffs', unless you just take the entire kernel), ii) there's a file called 'history' which contains a long list of general changes/improvements of the kernel not really related to TCP/IP, by a long list of people, dated from the middle of '78 to the middle of '79. So it looks like he started with a considerably modified system. The only client code I see is User Telnet. (The MIT code has User and Server Telnet and FTP, as well as SMTP, but it uses a wholly different TCP interface.) Noel
