[comp.unix.xenix.sco] Xenix to DOS networking?

dls@genco.bungi.com (Dave L. Smith) (05/12/91)

Sorry to bring up a common topic, but what products can I use on Xenix
and DOS machines to make them communicate via an ethernet link?  I have
seen several articles under comp.os.sysv386, but have not seen ANY clear
product names/prices.  I need a relatively inexpensive solution.  I
already have Xenix 386 running and several other nearby PC's which can't
communicate with the Xenix machine.

Thanks for any information,
Dave Smith

I believe what you are looking for is Atlantix CocoNet - though they
are not terribly inexpensive - rather the opposite.  Other products
are available depending upon the kind of access you need - mapped
drives, Unix printers, telnet, ftp, terminal emulation.
Coconet gives printer access and mapped drives.  They are in the
(404) area code, but I don't know their number - the city is 
Atlanta.  Send mail and I'll dig up specs.

There are some stanardproducts:
PC-NFS from SUN
FTP/TCP with interdrive
PC-INTERFACE from locus

or, if you only need a terminal emulation from dos to UNIX

ICE.TCP from JamesRiverGroup

Sorry, but I think my german pricing is not interessed in this
international newsgroup.
