     I have just discovered this discusion group and before asking a lot of
old questions I would like to review the  archives, does anyone know where
they are kept.  As I am a BITNET user a BITNET listserv would be most helpful.

     I am looking at establishing a TCP/IP net with IBMs MVS TCP/IP.  It will
talk to a hand full of PS/2s and PC/ATs.  Some of these PS/2s and ATs will also
need to be connected to a Novell network. I would like to FTP files to/from the
MVS host to the Novell file server directly.  In one case the Novell server is
on the same Ether connection as the TCP/IP net.  In another the AT will be
connected to TCP/IP using ether and to Novell using ARCNET.

     The first questions I have is what cards and software are known to
work in this environment?  Sources?
If you have tried this how well did it work?
Am I off in left field somewhere with this idea?

Any help or questions should be directed to me and will be greatly
appreciated.
