Several of our clients have the need to connect existing Novell
networks to IBM RS/6000 systems.  The primary functionality
needed is to allow PC's on the network to (1) login to the
RS/6000 and (2) read/write files on the RS/6000 that are also
available to programs running on that machine under AIX.  The
networks already have sufficient file servers, so the RS/6000
does not have to act in that capacity.  In all cases the
environment is a busy law firm that puts heavy demands on the
equipment and has little tolerence for failure or glitches.

Reports of real-world experience would be appreciated.  Please
e-mail and I will summarize to the net if there is interest.

Thanks.
