Columbia AppleTalk Package

   <networking> (CAP) An implementation of {Apple Computer}'s
   {AppleTalk} {protocols} for {Unix} {4.2BSD} and its
   derivatives, from {Columbia University}.  There are two
   different {LAP} delivery mechanisms for: {IPTalk} and
   {Ethertalk} (possibly using {UAB}).

   CAP supports the following {AppleTalk} {protocols}: {AppleTalk
   Transaction Protocol} (ATP), {Name Binding Protocol} (NBP),
   {Printer Access Protocol} (PAP), {AppleTalk Session Protocol}
   (ASP), {AppleTalk Filing Protocol} (AFP) client side.  In
   addition, the {Datagram Delivery Protocol} (DDP) and {Zone
   Information Protocol} (ZIP) are partially available.  The
   structure of the {Internet Appletalk Bridge} software makes it
   impossible to provide full DDP service.  Only the Get Zone
   List ATP ZIP command is implemented for ZIP.
