What about running dual protocols if the PCs have Token Ring cards ? Does anyone ahave any advice and/or experience. ---------------- Al Dykes adykes@jpr.com

You have to watch out Or you can simplify things tremendously by getting a TCP/IP package that has an interface to to IBM ASI drivers (tokreui, pro4ruei, etc.). Our PC/TCP will coexist with Netware for IBM ASI drivers without further additional software. I don't know what other TCP/IP packages run over the IBM ASI drivers, but some of them must. Wollongong, last I heard, didn't. I think Beame and Whiteside does, but I can't find explicit references. I don't know about Sun or any of the others... More information, anybody? -- Frances Kirk Selkirk info@ftp.com (617) 246-0900 FTP Software, Inc. 26 Princess Street, Wakefield, MA 01880
