They also claim to have Unix support for this. The name of the product is "SIMACS". The natural question is - has anyone tried this yet? We are looking at enlarging our installation (more machines) and the ability to share disks (and even the data on the disks) between machines sounds very good. But it seems to be an extremely new product, at least for the Unix world. If there are any responses (and enough interest), I'll post the results. -- eric ...!seismo!umcp-cs!aplvax!eric
