   Does there exist a port of Iserver for DECStations that are connected
   via a SCSI interface to a transputer network ?

I am not aware of anyone who does this.

It does seem to me though that SCSI would make a good link interface,
especially since most vendors (Sun, SGI, IBM) provide a generic SCSI
device driver that you could hack up a link.c to use.

I just checked and the latest version of Ultrix appears not to have
such a driver.
