I haven't tried it with SCO UNIX, but we use PC-NFS over SLIP with an
Annex terminal server as the router. It works like a charm, but make
sure ot use as high a speed as possible on the serial line. It is
possible to increase the serial port speed on the PC to 38.4 Kbps
with a small program (~10 lines of C code).
