[comp.dcom.lans] Netware VMS...

Does anyone know the current status of NetWare VMS?  They released version
2.01 a while back, and I heard that performance was not great, and that
there was no Macintosh support (as in the case of NetWare 2.15 on PC-based
servers).  Is there a more recent version?

Also, any comment on the following?

I have an Mac IIcx with Apple EtherCard.  When I attempt to access
devices on a LocalTalk net (gatewayed with a Kinetics FastPath IV) like
a laserwriter or Appleshare file server, the performance seems very slow --
far slower than if I use a Mac directly on the LocalTalk.  Any thoughts
would be appreciated.
