hello there!
I'm looking for a combination of hardware and software which
allows the use of X.25 communications from a PC-386 running
Xenix-386.
Thanks in advance.

Reluctantly... An English firm named Symicron sells a X.25 card + driver software + multi-session terminal program for XENIX/386. I must warn anyone that they usually sell DOS products. The XENIX software we got has numerous problems. Well you know how it goes: Client "I'm writing some software for your product, and I have problems 1 2 3 ... 8" Company (after a couple of weeks) "Yes, yes, your problems seem to be bugs in the driver, maybe we'll do something about it in the next release scheduled for next month" Next month passes and ... (oh well, the usual story) One possible plus is that I got the impression that they are willing to supply the source (if you apply due pressure). So if you've got the time to do some debugging yourself, it might be worth it. The company is trying to make a serious product of the XENIX package, it just isn't there yet. Their numbers are: phone: +44-1-857-5577 fax : +44-1-857-1945 Richard (...!hp4nl!neabbs!richard)
