Hello All: 

I have a question to ask.  We have a lab full of Macs and PC's and
we would like to gain access to X-Windows.  The Entire Campus is 
networked through a LAN System that uses mostly Ethernet cabling.

The problem is that we would like to connect to one of the Many mainframes
on campus and use X-Windows from other locations.

One Software package that I was told about is MacLayers but this 
program seems to use a modem and we have no need for a modem because
we are already conected to the Mainframes via cable.

If there is any one who can help me, send a suggestions, or who have
done this please let me know.

We have Mac SE's and Mac IIsi's Running on a Novell Server (IBM PS/80's)
Netware Version SFT 286 V2.15 Rev. C.

Any help given would be appreciated and Thanks in Advance:
