[comp.unix.xenix] EXCELAN LAN WORKPLACE

KRW1@Lehigh (08/27/90)

Has anyone been successful in getting Excelan's LAN WorkPlace
for Xenix operational.  We have been trying to get the streams
components which the documentation says are required: Streams
Runtime and Streams Toolkit.  No one seems to be able to tell
us what the Toolkit is or how to order it.  We've been run around
by SCO for months now.  Has anyone else found SCO thoroughly
impossible to deal with on orders and delivery?  -- Kevin

We had no problem getting Lan WorkPlace running.  We had Xenix-Net, and
when we realized we needed Streams, we called up SCO and they sent it out
to us.  There may have been a charge for Streams, but I don't think so.
You just install it with Custom right after Xenix Net, and before Lan
WorkPlace, then do a mkdev xnet, and off you go.
