"an existing DEC LAN in working condition" 2. "an existing 3com 3+Open LAN in working condition" Is this equivalent to: 1.' "a network card with the appropriate DEC DLL-compliant driver" 2.' "a network card with the appropriate MS NDIS-compliant driver and protocol manager software" ??? If no, I don't understand the response quoted above. If yes, wouldn't the restated versions (possibly corrected, since I don't really understand yet how NDIS works and know nothing about DLL) be more generally useful?? Edification, please. -chas ctw@aero.org -- *** Charles T. Wolverton ***** Aerospace Corporation *** *** ctw@aerospace.aero.org ***** P.O.
