Sorry to interrupt all the discussion of 386bsd. :-)

Could someone please to me explain the difference between the
following:

	4.3bsd
	4.3bsd-tahoe
	4.3bsd-reno
	NET2

My particular interest is in upgrading a (don't laugh) VAX 11/785
running 4.3bsd to something with some more modern features, in
particular NFS.

What's the path of least resistance?

Thanks,

Larry
