TCPware is from Process Software, not "from Multinet".  Multinet is another 
TCP/IP stack for OpenVMS.  It was from TGV, which was sold to Cisco.  Cisco 
sold Multinet to Process Software, so Multinet is now from Process Software, 
too.  The Wollongong Group used to market a package called, first, WIN/TCP and 
then Pathway Access.  TWG's Internet Products division was sold to 
Attachmate, and Pathway is available from them.  The free package you're 
talking about is called CMUIP (or CMU-OpenVMS-IP) from ftp2.kcl.ac.uk, among 
other places.  CMUIP has SLIP built in and an add-on PPP.  Personally, I like 
the aforementioned UK site because of its completeness in available CMUIP 
add-ons, like the R-series commands and UCX compatibility library.
