Has anyone out there used one of the LANs (Tecmar Elan, Orchid PC-net,
3-Com etc.) with one of the *NIX UNIX lookalikes (QNX, Xenix, Coherent,
uNETix etc.)? If so, could you describe your experiences with the system?
I am most interested in how large the network is, what kind of server is
being used (XT, 68000, VAX), what kind of hard disk capacity you have,
how well the file-locking mechanisms work and how pleased you are with
the response time with lots of I/O.
Please reply by mail and I'll post the results (if any). Thanks in advance.
