When we were running DECNet, Chaos, and Wolly's TCP on a VAX at
NRTC we had to do the same thing, i.e., run Chaos off one Ethernet
reciever and TCP off another.  As I remember it, DECNet could
share off either controller, but Chaos and Wollongong were
incompatable.  After we junked Wolly's stuff and moved on to
a hardware TCP card (Excelan), we have that doing TCP/IP and
the other continuing to do both DECNet and Chaos.
