I'm thinking that I could set up a 386 machine running an appropriate version of *NIX as a host for an Ethernetwork of 20 Zenith ATs. Would a 33MKHz '386 with 16MB RAM and a 300+MB hard disk do it? I would need Ethernet hardware and software, and I'd like to have NFS on top of it. Would you suggest a 386 configuration -- hw and sw -- that would do the trick? If one 386 won't do it, could I run 10 ATs Ether'd to a 16MHz 386 (4-8MB, 72MB HD), the other 10 to a second 386, and the two 386s Ether'd-TCP/IP'd-NFS's together?
