I am looking for ways to hook up a bunch of Macs to a TCP/IP network. I've
seen the Kinetics box, which provides TCP and the usual utilities, but no NFS.
I've heard of Cayman, but they still seem to be vapor. I know about TOPS and
CAP, which work but only get you to other hosts that can talk Appletalk. Have
I missed anything important or are the pieces not quite in place? I've never
seen a reasonable mail system that interfaces to smtp, directly or indirectly,
and can't tell whether I'm ignorant or it's not there yet. (Telnet-ing to a
Unix host to read your mail doesn't count.) Any advice would be appreciated.
TIA,
