I really don't know how well it works or how much it costs, but I >thought I'd mention it. We have Sun's PC-NFS version 1.0 here. It is a partial implementation of NFS in that it allows PCs to act as clients only, that is, PCs may use network resources such as printers and disks, but they may not offer their own resources to be shared. You may also remote-login to hosts that support telnet. Although we don't have it, I understand that version 2.0 has FTP support so that you can transfer files to/from non-NFS hosts. Quantity 1-4 prices are: Software only: $325 Software and manuals: $395 Software, manuals, and 3com 3C501 ethernet card: $995 Contact your local Sun rep for more details. Educational discounts are available. -- Bob Hoffman, N3CVL {allegra, bellcore, cadre, idis, psuvax1}!pitt!hoffman Pitt Computer Science hoffman%pitt@relay.cs.net
