Dear NetBSDers,
There are two talk protocols - one used in BSD4.2 and earlier and one
used in BSD4.3 and later. NetBSD0.9 had in it's inet.conf talk ->
/usr/old/talkd and an entry for talk in /etc/services. NetBSD1.0 had
no entry for inetd.conf talk (just ntalk) but did have an entry in
/etc/services.
Some other systems (in particular a SUN I am trying to talk with) uses
talk not ntalk.
Where would be the best place to get the sources for talkd which use
the older talk protocol for a NetBSD machine?
