I have a client who has been loaned a complete PC Lan using a 386 running
Vines 386 as server.  I discovered much to my dismay that although the
server is running Unix there appears to be no way to access it.  In 
particular:
	1. Can't plug in Modem and login remote or do uucp;
	2. Can't configure Asynch service and login;
	3. Can't add terminals;
	4. Can't rlogin from another machine.

Bummer!

This is of much surprise to me after using a Convergent 640 running Vines
along with everything else.  We have near complete freedom to integrate. 

In the devout belief that ignorance can be cured but stupid is forever,
somebody please tell me I'm an idiot and more specifically how to do the
above...

thanks in advance,
