- You can use clarkson(crywn) packet drivers and NCSA/Clarkson telnet/ftp. and
- rung IPX and Net(3/4/5/X/ems/xms), but most people are moving to odi and
- yuou could run Lan workplace for Dos/groups which has NW connectivity and tcp/ip
- support.
-
- In anycase, PCTCP runs with these. I also believe wollongong ddoes. I'm
- not familiar with ICE. But SUN NFS has problems, better to move to odi if you
- are going todo NFS and NW.
-
- You might try posting to comp.sys.novell also.
