Does anyone out there currently use Xenix-net and have a DOS machine
tied in?  I can get xnreset, xnstatus and xnftp to work, but have been
yet to get vtp.exe to run on DOS and talk to a Xenix machine.  It apparently
is looking for a NET.EXE program and that didn't come in the set of
DOS executables.  'net' came with the Xenix version of Xenix net.  The
docs are not clear as to where I should get this program.

The Xenix-net manual gives some mention to MS-NET and IBM PC-Net running
Xenix-Net.  Do most people use another network rather than Ethernet
cards when talking on Xenix-Net?  I have Excelan's LAN workplace for
Xenix and for DOS running and Xenix-Net from Xenix to Xenix works great.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
