How well (i.e., transparently) do the following work? (1) remote login to remote sites (2) remote login to wide-area TCP/IP networks (3) file transfer between local sites (4) file transfer (anonymous FTP) over wide-area networks (5) local mail (6) mail through wide-area networks, including uucp, bitnet, tcp/ip and csnet (7) DECSERVER 500 connections to SUN's (8) Wollagong or Fusion software (9) SUNLINK DECNET software What are your experiences with Appletalk networks on DECNET? Pacer software or ALISA software? Anything else you can think of positive or negative will be greatly appreciated.
