Netlanders,
	I need a little help, direction, advise with a problem I'm
sure someone out there can shed some light on.

Backround:
	We are using thick Ethernet to connect +60 pc's in three
attached buildings (read logically 1 building) to 2 Netware file
servers.  Sytek 4140 multi-protocol cards are installed in all the 
pc's except for the micro-channel machines, where Western Digital
etherplus/a cards are installed.  Sytek (now Hughes LAN Systems),
installed a bridge and fiber optic repeater to attach this to the campus
fiber backbone.  Attached to the other end of the fiber is one of the
schools five Prime mini-computers.  Sytek also provided it's version of FTP
inc.'s TCP/IP software.  I have been able to attach to the Prime using
the fiber and vt100 emulation over telnet.  

Problem:
	Some of the software on the Prime has been customized to only
work with Prime pt200 and pt250 terminals.  (Don't bother asking why,
It's a long story... I just have to make it work).  

Question(s):
	Does anyone make a pt200 TCP/IP emulation product?  Is there a
'generic' emulation product I should try?  If I provide a termcap file
can a product be made?  If so by whom?  Can I get C code and adapt it
myself?  Since the vice-president wants this right away should I look
for another job?

Thanks in advance,  Digitally, 
			Cliff
