Thanks for the many replies to my previous posting ... I've tried 
sending E-Mail to several of you, but it just keeps bouncing. I'm 
not purposely ignoring you :-) ... 

Fish 79 contains the Amiga source and executable for the Unix 
Windows Client program. This was version 1.0 ... If there ever 
WAS an update , perhaps it supported tektronix graphics. I run  
this at home , and use the Uw executable which was already on 
the university's system for Mac users.

Now several folk recommend I use Dnet. I would be absolutely 
THRILLED to do so ... I've heard so many good things about it.
However, my department's Sun Workstation network runs the Sun 3.5 
operating system. I have been told that this is VERY SIMILAR to 
Berkely 4.3 , which I believe is what Dnet is designed for.
So perhaps Dnet could be made to work. Has anyone done so ?? 
Please ... this is turning into a matter of honour here ... 
Amiga capabilities versus Mac , as it were ... :-) :-)
