I have a couple of questions that I hope someone might be able to help me with.
1. Is anyone using a Novell ethernet LAN and also accessing a
TCP/IP network through the same ethernet board in your micro?
What ethernet board are you using?
2. Is anyone using a Novell ethernet LAN and also accessing a
TCP/IP network through a board in the file serve? What board are
you using?
We are using the Novell NE1000 board in our micros but have not been successful
in accessing a TCP/IP network. We have thought about using the Micom 5210 board
but Novell has not certified it to run on their Novell network.
Any help on this would be appreciated......larry@pyr1.acs.udel.EDU (Larry Larraga) (05/19/88)
We are going to try a 20 node LAN using Excelan's 205T Ethernet Boards and their LAN WorkPlace Package for Netware software which Novell & Excelan both claim will access our TCP/IP backbone through our NetWare server. The software includes ftp, telnet and a bunch of "r" utilities with VT100 emulation. I hope it works - it's not cheep. Actually, we're buying Excelan's LAN Workplace Package for Host Access, which includes goodies to use our VAX 8650 as an SMB Server; plus the NetWare drivers - Excelan's part number LWP-2002, in case you're interested...
