Hi all,

Is there any combination of TOPS and some terminal emulation that will run  on
PCs over ethernet?  The preferred connection would be one going straight to a
VAX.  If need be, however, the users can go through an Ultrix gateway from a
TCP/IP unix host.

TOPS and PCLINK from PACER will work over localtalk, but you run into distance
problems if your net is of any reasonable size.
