Peter,

	SCOs Open Desktop product (SCO UNIX 3.2 etc) is shipped with Lachmans'
TCP/IP support. This product supports a nice range of standard
(ish) ethernet cards PLUS Token Ring Boards.

The system (ODT-NET) supports TCP/IP, Streams and IBM Lan Manager
(NetBIOS) protocols. Therefore you can have all these from one ethernet
or Token Ring board !!.

Item 3. See Above.

Item 4 has many options, those that come to mind are,

	Sun's PC-NFS	-	Telnet, FTP et al,
				Ethernet only,
				NFS (Of Course) would work nice with
				Open Desktop (Is as NFS too !)
				Uses Loadsa RAM.

	FTP TCP/IP Package

	Excelan	-	Telnet, FTP etc.
	LAN-Workplace	Ethernet only (I Think)
	for DOS		NetBIOS Support
				IBM LAN Manager support
				can be used to mount PC-Net disks
				from ODT.
				Most of the TCP/IP protocol support is
				down loaded to their board, (it has a 80186)
				this frees up loadsa RAM.

	Many others I can't think of......

Hope this helps
-jeff

BTW:	I Don't work for sco :-) I just develop with ODT.
