I am going to hook up an IBM PC-AT onto an internet connection. The line I will be using is hooked up to a Cisco router. I want to run Excelan's LAN Workplace for DOS. Assuming that the router is hooked up properly, is this possible? If so, what do I use for my IP address? I am very new to networking world, I was chosen to do this task mainly because of my IBM PC experience. Also, eventually I am going to replace the PC-DOS with Xenix/286 with Excelan's LAN Workplace for Xenix/286 TCP/IP, to act as a mail site. How do I find out how this is done. There are some Unix people I can ask, but asking help from a PC TCP/IP newsgroup sounds like I might get people who have done exactly what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks in advance. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+
