Have a picture in my head, but need to replace the black boxes with some
real names - your help would be appreciated.  I'm putting together a SUN
system that will serve PC's that connect both over E-net and Async.  The
main purpose for the connection in either mode is to perform FTP's or
use NFS - also, am using IP all over to limit the support headaches for
this setup.
  I'm looking for hardware and software that would allow for installation of
this setup using PPP (due to horror stories on SLIP performance).  On the
async side, I need to be able to attach multiple simultaneous async users.
There.  I'll be waiting patiently - thanks in advance...
