I wonder - does this still exist somewhere?
I see there is plenty of documentation for Solstice X.25/Sunlink X.25
on the Oracle website, but I seem to be failing in locating any
Sunlink DNA information.
In a career built mostly around Sun equipment dating back to the 68010-
based Sun2 line, I have *never* seen this in the wild. Even my contacts (at the
time) within Sun Microsystems couldn't get ahold of it.
Back then I suspected it was vaporware and gave up on it.
It wasn't vaporware. I set it up for someone once back in the mid to
late 80's.
I don't recall any details though. :-(

I believe it was a third-party implementation from Technology Concepts, Sudbury, MA.
