This situation is plainly ridiculous. Until such time as someone's legal 
department asks me to cease and desist, you can get that A/UX 1.1 version of 
the EtherPort driver software by anonymous FTP:

Host:  redstar.dcs.qmw.ac.uk [138.37.64.4] 
File:  archive/aux/epdriver.1.1.Z
Size:  9825 bytes (compressed tar file)

NB: 
* Our DNS may not be correctly set up - please mail me if you have any problems
  with this. 
* It is only the A/UX 1.1 version of the driver, so it won't support EtherTalk
  Phase 2 (NFS etc are OK though).
* It only works for the old-style ETherPort II card (the full length one)
* The tar file unpacks directly into place in subdirectories of /etc. There
  is no nice, neat installation script (they never poroduced one).
