I used it running Interactive 386/ix 1.06 has, and SCO Unix V.3.2 will have, as options, host based TCP/IP with support for the following dumb ethernet boards: - Western Digital WD8003 - Ungermann Bass PC-NIC 2273A (maybe 386/ix only?) - 3Com 3C501/502/503 - Micom NI5010 (maybe 386/ix only?) Sun's PC-NFS version 3 supports the same boards and more. If I were planning for the future with PC-bus machines, I would pick from this list. -- Jim Morton, APPLiX Inc., Westboro, MA UUCP: ...harvard!m2c!applix!jim jim@applix.m2c.org
