is anyone running pc-nfs _and_ pc-oracle on
a dos machine?  i'm having problems figuring out
whether this is possible, since the two vendors 
involved (sun and oracle) provide orthogonal lists
of ethernet cards.  nor can i extract any info from them
regarding dos extended memory conflicts, etc.

would like to use my vax/ultrix systems as oracle database
servers _and_ file servers for the pc's.  straight tcp/ip
network (no novell or any other pc-lan)

if you _are_ doing this, please advise what ethernet
card you're using, and any restrictions, special tricks,
etc... also, are you using sun's pc-nfs product?  is
nfs for dos available from any other vendors?

tia for any info...
