Communications between the two systems will be vital. The Star supports Ethernet as part of the XNS (Xerox Network Standard (?)) but it does not appear that it will be possible to write applications programs for the Star. Does anyone have experience with uucp-XNS communications or uucp using Ethernet? Is there a better way to make these machines talk to each other? Please reply by mail to ...!decvax!utzoo!utcsstat!mario. Thanks in advance, Mario Ruggiero University of Toronto Computing Services Toronto, Ontario, Canada
