I would like to link two 386-based Xenix systems (both running 2.3.2), one a MCA bus and the other an AT bus. Ideally I would like something like NFS, so I can open files on the remote system directly from my applications. What alternatives do I have? Does NFS really work between two Xenix systems? What software/hardware must be in place to permit this? Is there anything else that would provide similar functionality? Thanks. B.

Among other items and products available is: Xenixnet from SCO, using the MS-net protocols. This also allows DOS based systems to access files. CoCoNet This seems to be a more complete implemention. It is available for MS-Dos, Novell Netware, and SCO Xenix. It is an Ethernet lan. Available from CoCoNet, 1(800) 262-6526 or 1(305) 447-4806. They are located in Coral Gables, Florida.
