We use it inhouse with ~200 PCs, ~50 MACs (MAC ccmail), 50 Apollo workstations, 9 Symbolics machines, and a Sequent. All it takes is a PC with one ethernet card, and one novell card of any flavor. There is at least one *nix machine on one particular ethernet, so we use that one, and our PCs are also on ethernet, so our gateway has two ethernet cards in it. Works great. Mail me and I can email you the sources if you are interested. From uunet!aecom!naftoli Mon Aug 14 14:13:29 1989 To: suntc!jh34607 Subject: Re: UNIX - Novell cc:Mail Link ????

Newsgroups: comp.mail.misc,comp.sys.ibm.pc Organization: Interactive Systems Corporation, Naperville, IL Have you thought about putting up a TCP/IP package on one of the Novell clients so that you can "gateway" mail to your sendmail? A plausible scenerio: [SMTP (TCP/IP) hosts] ---- [SMTP/CC:MAIL gateway] ---- [CC:MAIL hosts] The gateway can be built (and has been built for things like 3Com's mail package) using Phil Karn's TCP/IP package (this is known as the KA9Q internet package) and Deskview. Basically, you need a task that watches for mail on the gateway PC and then forward's it on to CC:MAIL. Likewise, this task should check for mail in the CC:MAIL spooling directory, and kick it to Phil's package for sending via SMTP. The logical picture of the software on the gateway PC: [KA9Q server] --- [Forwarding Task] --- [CC:MAIL server] ^ ^ | | ---- spool queue's ---- This description may not be clear enough. If you would like, feel free to call me and we can discuss this more. Jonathan Sadler Member of Tech.

Newsgroups: comp.mail.misc,comp.sys.ibm.pc Organization: Oregon State University -- UCS Cc: John, There are currently three solutions available to get from cc:Mail to Unix mail. They differ mainly on transport protocols. One solution uses the UUCP protocols and uses rs-232 links. Another uses SMTP and an Ethernet link. The third requires MMDF on your Unix host and uses the phonenet protocol (also rs-232 based). All of the above solutions have been developed by customers of cc:Mail. cc:Mail is currently developing a fully supported SMTPLink as one of their gateways.
