MARCHANYRC@VTVAX3.BITNET (RANDY MARCHANY) (12/05/86)
We have over 10 VAX systems and an IBM 3090 model 200. The majority of
the Vaxes run VMS 4.4 (although we have one running Ultrix) and the IBM
systems run VM/SP HPO 4.2 with CMS release 4. We are looking at some
software/hardware products that will let us establish a TCP/IP network
here at Va. Tech. We are planning to connect the 3090 to SURANET and
eventually we'll do the same for our Vax systems.
I am looking at the WISCNET package and at Fibronics (formerly
Spartacus?) KNET 200. I am very little info on the Wollongong software
for the Vax systems. I would like to hear from anyone who has had
any experience with any of these packages. Any information on reliability,
vendor support, installation problems, your opinion of the products, etc.
would be greatly appreciated. You can respond to this list or to me
directly. My name and address is:

Also, if there are any other products out there that will perform the
same functions, I'd like to hear about them. Thanks again.
