Hello there, hello Bob,

we are running a PC-NFS net with a Sun 3/260 as server and abt 20 PC-
clients (from XT to 386 AT).
I would appreciate:

	-	at least a conversation about that (there is a lot to say)

	-	or a mailing list, or much better...

	-	a newsgroup about PC - NFS !!!

Any discussion is welcome !

Fritz

We ,at I.F.S.I.C, are running a 100 PC lan under PC-NFS for three years now.
The network reached its actual size last year and had been used by the 700 students registered on the server ( a 3/160 SUN ).
The server also support a 16 channel MUX for the 10 400CPI printers located nearthe PCs.It also runs the POPD daemon used for E-MAIL and is the YP master server================================================================================

Many thanks to all those people who replied to my question
about PC-NFS.

Thanks to them, I think I have found out all I needed to
know about the product.

If anyone wants a summary of the replies, get in touch.
	Bob.
