We have some professors and labs that use macs and are planning to Appletalk several buildings. I've just bought a fastpath 4 and am trying to decide what software to run on it and the macs. Here are some features I need: 1. Telnet and ftp a MUST 2. Sharing laserwriters between macs and Unix would be nice. 3. Disk sharing would be nice 4. Low cost per node. 5. Minimal impact on Unix software and existing Ethernet configuration (which works well and I am very anxious not to distrub in any way) What are folks out there using? Do you like it? Thanks in advance. Bill Ross br@wucs1.wustl.edu
