  I use PC/TCP+ from FTP Software Inc. which provides PC-NFS
services to our HP9000 Unix based workstations.  Unlike the
SUN PC-NFS programs, PC/TCP gets along with MS-Windows 3.0
very well.  I can also run FTP, FTP server, and Telnet from
MS-Windows 3.0, though not in a multitasking/background fashion.

  I bought PC/TCP+ to use along with VisionWare's XVision
X Windows server.  This provides X Windows access to the
HP9000s using MS-Windows as the windows manager.  Both products
perform well.  I really appreciate the fact that MicroSoft
cooperated with and followed many of the provisions of the
Motif X Windows interface.  This means that I can move from
my workstation to my PC and see the same windows decorations and
use the same keystrokes and mouse hits to control them.
