I could probaby provide legal licensing and floppies since our Xenix box
hasn't been booted since late 1999 (the floppies probably wouldn't be any
good though).

The main reason I can think of for getting tcp/ip on Xenix is to get data
off old systems.  I usually either install an old Adaptec SCSI controller,
and dump the system to tape or install the hard drive in an OpenServer
system to get it that way.  Most Xenix systems I've had to pull data from
for conversions don't have more data than will fit on a single CD.

You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a
reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating
the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for
independence.
