Hi Dan.

SIPB has a NeXT machine that is running some Athena services - I
wouldn't say it is running Athena (there are too many things missing).
The services we have compiled for "black" machines (i.e. the NeXT
Motorola machines) include X11R4, Kerberos clients, Zephyr, and AFS.
None of these are available for "white" machines (i.e. the Intel-based
machines).  Basically, I compile Athena programs as I need them.
There are various little tools, also, like listmaint and write.  We
don't have anything packaged up nicely for handing out, just random
binaries.

If you have a true NeXT machine, not an Intel machine, I can just give
you the binaries we have, which will get you up and running.  The
Intel binaries would have to be compiled first, and I haven't had time
to do that yet.

Let me know what version of NEXTSTEP you have, and I'll be able to
help you further.  Send me email (opus), rather than replying to this
list.  I'm not sure which of sipb's many lists is most appropriate for
this sort of discussion, since it isn't a bug report per se.
