G'day,
	We are looking for some PC software to network 3-9 PCs to an
	HP-9000 Series 350 running pcnfsd. I've looked at Sun's PC-NFS,
	and FTP's PC-TCP. So far, things are leaning Sun's way, especially
	if their release Real Soon Now (supposedly March) fixes the problems
	with Windows. Basically, is there anywhere else I should look before
	buying? The facilities needed are:
			Mounting of HP's drives as MS-DOS drives
			Remote login over Ethernet
			Remote printing
			Compatibility with Windows 3.00
			Low memory usage


	Any suggestions would be appreciated.

			Ron Wail
