Hi folks!

I'm in the process of proposing a domain name server for a customer and
was thinking of using Linux as an inexpensive solution.  The customer is
all token ring and I was wondering how support for this is progressing.

I have some kernel patches for the 1.2.x kernels, but I recall reading
a note somewhere that token ring support might be included in the 1.3.x
kernels.  Is this true?  If so, how stable is it?  This customer has
quite a few source route bridges and several Cisco routers.

Any info or assistance is greatly appreciated.  Also, if there is an FAQ
available, that would help, too.

Thanx!
