My company is purchasing a bunch of Sequent S-27's to act as database servers for an Ethernet LAN consisting of MS-DOS PC's... I more-or-less understand how NFS works (in theory) but exactly how NFS interfaces the two operating systems is rather mysterious. Is there any comprehensive literature on the subject? I haven't contacted Sequent... I'm not even sure at this point that they're supplying the client software, though I assume they are (my company tends to like to spend money on hardware and software and then assume that we will magically figure out how to run it... none of that training stuff, no-siree!
