- ESKER puts out a product called "TUN UNIX,TUN PLUS, TUN/X"
- The TUN UNIX product has "VPRINT" which provides access to
- the local MS-DOS printer from all workstations on the network.
- "RPRINT" provides access to UNIX printers from the MS-DOS PC.
- VDKNET provides access to UNIX file systems and backup perpherals
- from the MS-DOS PC. I have sold and installed ESKER products
- and they work very well after initial set-up. They also have an
- excellent terminal emulation package. ESKER is a French company
- that has recently open a USA office. For resellers, MERISEL
- distributes the full ESKER Line.
