I know that people have asked this in the future, without any definate
answer from AT&T, but IF THEY ARE LISTENING....
When can I expect to be able to get System V Release 3 for the
3B15? I understand that this is necessary to get Version 2.1
of Wollingong's TCP/IP up and running. Seeing that we have a
high interest in gettng RFS up, we need this code.
If anyone at AT&T has any information on this, please don't leave us in
the dark. There are others out here in the real world that would like
to get this software.
(I'll now get off my soapbox...)
Thanks for any information that is supplied....

I don't know about SVR3 for the 3B15, but I want to clarify a point: You don't need Wollongong's TCP/IP 2.1 in order to run RFS. RFS will run on transport providers other than TCP/IP. You need a TCP/IP provider ONLY IF you want to talk RFS with other (non AT&T) SVR3 boxes.

We recently received a folder containing AT&T's pitch for 3.1 for the 3b15. We had already ordered everything in it from our rep, so it was just a little late. It says: > PE CODE DESCRIPTION > ------- ----------- > 73718P 3B15 SVR 3.1.1 Upgrade Kit Promotion > > Includes: > 73718 3B15 SVR 3.1.1 Upgrade Kit > 73504 SLIC Board [I think that is the "SCSI Local Interface > Connector"] > 73545 SCSI Patch Panel > 73720 Power Control Interface & Display > > > Combined List Price: $21,300 > Promotion Discount: 25% > Promotion List Price: $16,000 They also list "other AT&T 3B15 SVR 3.1.1 Product Enhancements", mostly scsi stuff. It then goes on to describe all the neat stuff 3.1.1 has.. --smitch P.S. AT&T is calling this promo "Investment Plus". -- Steve Mitchell (steve@CSUFresno.edu) CATI / CSU, Fresno / Fresno, CA 93740-0115 / (209) 294-2361 "Remember, folks ... ask for those 'Bill the Cat' flammable pajamas by name.
