Message-ID: <776@infopro.UUCP> Date: Wed, 13-Nov-85 16:42:46 EST Article-I.D.: infopro.776 Posted: Wed Nov 13 16:42:46 1985 Date-Received: Thu, 14-Nov-85 20:38:11 EST Organization: InfoPro Systems, Denville, NJ Lines: 12 Please write to tell me of file-server & vitrual terminal standards. I know that DEC has them, SUN has them, and Xerox has them. Are there any other such standards? Perhaps ARPA standards? Are any of the standards multi-vendor or are they all proprietary? Also, is there some sort of fault-tolerant inter-LAN gateway? Something that would allow interconnection of two LANs & keep one going even if the other is completely dead? (I'm aware that this should go in net.lan, but we don't get that group.) -- Randolph Fritz wu1!rf
