[comp.sys.sun] SUN 3E - HP 835 connection?

peter@uunet.uu.net (Peter Linde) (12/30/88)

We are going to connect a SUN 3E (Eurocard) to an HP 835 via Ethernet.
The SUN card sits in a CONTEXTVISION GOP-302 image processing system.  We
have heard that the SUN 3E card is known to be somewhat difficult to
integate into other systems, due to hardware problems.

- Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with 3E cards?
- Does anyone know if a 571 Mb HP disc sitting on an HP 835 can be
  transparently used via NFS from such a SUN?

Please answer via e-mail.
