The Business School is currently using arcnet to access our main Novell server. For Novell purposes this is fine. However, they are getting to a point where they now want TCP/IP services like all of the ethernet users. We could set them up using the Wollongong software but besides being very poor software it is also very expensive (there are 60 arcnet stations). Is there some other solution, perferably PD, that would provide novell arcnet users with ethernet-like telnet and ftp services. I have saw some information about ka9q and PCROUTE accomplishing this sort of thing, but I would like to hear from someone who has actually done it. I would really like to be able to use NCSA Telnet, but any telnet package would do. Please reply to me directly since I don't normally read this group. Thanks. -- Paul H.
