We would like to know what RISC-based Unix platforms have Netware available (now or early 1991), and what their performance is like. The easiest way (for me) to measure performance is to compare to a 25/33 MHz 386 Netware server (faster, slower, much faster, much slower). We would like to know whether a medium-sized Unix box (say a MIPS 3000 or 6000) could do useful work _and_ be a Novell server with reasonable performance for LAN clients. We have considered PC-NFS, but for a large installation it gets quite expensive. Quite a few big sites already have a fair amount of Novell expertise already. Any other suggestions would also be welcomed, but Netware looks like the prime candidate currently ... -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Paul Nash Flagship Wide Area Networks (Pty) Ltd paul@frcs.UUCP ...!ddsw1!proxima!frcs!paul
