+This README describes the LKSCTP implementation of SCTP for Linux.
+
+June 2003 - 1.0
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+The LKSCTP project is the Linux Kernel implementation of SCTP. As of this
+writing it has been incorporated into the Linux 2.6 test series of
+kernels.
+
+LKSCTP adheres to the IETF's SCTP Sockets Draft API. Please refer to that
+document for API specifics.
+
+You MUST use Linux 2.6-test4 or later. Earlier versions have a different
+api.
+
+Building ACE/TAO with LKSCTP support
+--------------------------------
+
+ - compile kernel with SCTP support
+ + if compiled as a module, be sure to load it.
+
+ - download LKSCTP userspace functions library from
+ http://lksctp.sourceforge.net/
+
+ - install userspace library (libsctp.a) into /usr/local/lib
+
+ - install header file (sctp.h) into /usr/local/include/sctp.h
+
+ - make ACE/TAO with "sctp=lksctp"
+
+Caveats
+---------------------------------
+
+ - Both services interfaces (SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET) will
+ preserve message boundaries.
+
+Resources
