Yes. AT&T StarGroup 3.3 (Lan Manager 1.1, SysV R3.4 port) and StarGroup 3.4
(Lan Manager 1.1, SysV R4.1 port). It'd be pretty easy to port to Sun when
they Release SysV R4. Currently runs on 386/486 with both Pyramid and Tandem
ports in the future (and, quite possibly NCR :-).

Yes, indeed it is!  AT&T's StarGROUP 3.3 for SVR3 and 3.4 for SVR4 is available
and shipping.

AT&T did such a wonderful job in RE-WRITING LAN Manger that NCR, Unisys,
Data General, Olivetti and several European Co's have licensed the AT&T LM/X 
code. I don't know if the other licensee's have actually done their port, but
the AT&T product is live and well.  I would assume that NCR is done since
their "Cooperation" product is based on AT&T's StarGROUP Software LAN Manager 
Server.

LM/X is available NOW for HP-UX and SCO UNIX, with both claim to be
SysV.
