I am looking for Xterm emulator software which would run on a 286 or 386 PC clone. I need to run this over a serial line so something like SLIP or PPP would also be required. Thanks. -- John C.

Some Ideas, (maybe not solutions) 1. A company called Xinetron (1-800-345-4415) is selling a "package", you can purchase a Novell 2000 clone (xinet-321) and X-Windows + TCP/IP software for about $175.00 (We're getting one to try it out ... 30 day money back ....) 2. From ACCUVAX.NWU.EDU (I think, check Archie) you can get a piece of software which allows you to turn an XT into a bridge. It's called PCBRIDGE. The advantage of this is that you can setup many X-Terminals and all can use the same SLIP line. Total cost involved is in the range of $400.00 (assuming you must purchase the XT) Let me know what you find. I'm interested in setting up something like this. (That's why we're getting the board to test (1)) Good Luck Yaser Ibrahim
