prelude: i know very little about nets and stuff (enough to be dangerous).... question: what would be required (hw/sw) to connect a token ring of pc's to an ethernet of suns, vaxen, and an alliant? i want to be able to rlogin from the pc's and/or submit jobs to mdqs. i would also like to to stick to tcp/ip as transfer/internet protocols on the token ring (if i can...). query: can pc-nfs do this??? ( it would be nice to have all systems under nfs.....) background: we are running bsd4.3 on the vax, the current sun release, and a bsd4.2 derivative on the alliant ( all these under nfs ). we are running desk view on the pc's ( also trying other multitasking dos ). plead: where would i look to gain knowlage in this area? texts, papers, etc... ( taking the prelude into concideration ) respond: via email please ( i don't have time to read the news all the time.:-) disclamer: the spelling is mine. signature:
