I am looking for information on 10-Net, put out by either the 10-Net corporation or the people who make IRMA boards (maybe tthe same people?). Supposedly, this is a network for the IBM PC family that works peer-to-peer, and allows for peripheral sharing as well as Novell compatibility. It the Novell compatibility that I'm concerned about, but I could really use anything you've got. Thanks in advance.

I haven't been close to Fox's products in about a year, but I don't believe that they are Novell compatable. When they first entered the market, they were a real good inexpensive LAN. As I understand it now, they are trying to become more standard orientated. Since being acquired by DCA, it appears that Fox has lost their price performance edge. -- Bob Leffler - EDS, GM Truck & Bus Account (313)456-5375 bob@rel.eds.com or {uunet!edsews, rutgers, umix}!rel!bob Opinions expressed may not be those of my employer.
