[bit.listserv.novell] DCB and ELS II

PETERSON@LIUVAX.BITNET (Reality is not an Industry Standard) (01/17/90)

Wh have an small office on campus that has some very large databases.
We have "suggested" that they network real soon now if they want reasonable
tech support in the future.  They have a 386 machine that can be a server.
However, they will need to purchase a new hard disk subsystem.  I have decided
the go SCSI.  and now for the twist -

The disk unit needs to run dos 4.01 until netware is purchased.  I am interested
in the procomp DCBs (never used them) - can they used under dos or are they
strictly channel attached under netware?

And..any comments on ELS II (they have five users) via anw286 / SFT.
They want low cost, I want good performance and reliability.
