Does anyone know of an EtherNet adaptor that will work with a laptop as a Novell server? I have been using a Xicor printer-port ethernet interface, but it can not be used for server duty. I would like to take a demo on the road in nondedicated mode, but dedicated would be fine - thanks. ---- James Wyatt (KA5VJL) - Standard disclaimer applies...

If you're willing to accept that parallel port throughput is significantly less than a bus ethernet - especially in a server application - contact Xircom. They have a server driver they can send you, they just don't let folks know about it because they don't want to build expectations of good server performance, then not deliver it. __________/\/\.\/\/.
