I will have the same problem when out 286's and 386's arrive. I will not be running Xenix but Bell Technologies Unix System V/386. I am led to beleive that VP/ix will support Novelle networks (this from Sun Microsystems in Sydney) and I was wondering the same thing as David: Has anyone actually done this ? I don't really care about logins. The powers that be just want mail facilities (for the moment !). I'm a grad student who has been roped in to network the machines together so I don't really want to spend that much time on it ! Please, if anyone has done this thing and has mailed David could they also mail me or post to the net as I think other people would possibly be interested. Thanks in advance Glenn glenn@extro.ucc.su.oz Albert Einstein was a Tasmanian.
