[comp.sys.mac.comm] How to run AppleShare client SW on PC TOPS cards

schear@ttidca.TTI.COM (Steve Schear) (11/20/90)

My company has a network of some 200 PCs and workstations (mostly Macs and
Suns) tied together via an Ethernet backbone.  The Macs and PCs are tied
together via Appletalk nets, with routers to the Ethernet.  These routers
are MacIIcxs and also run AppleShare servers.

In the past my section used TOPS to provide file transfers and limited 
e-mail function between our Macs and PCs.  We would now like to access
the AppleShare servers from these PCs.  Unfortunately, our TOPS FlashCards
do not appear to work with AppleShare (not too suprising).

Does anyone on this net know of a less expensive way to permit these PCs
access to AppleShare than buying AppleShare for PC set-ups for each one?
