[Line eater take this...]


It seems that a line eater somewhere ate not only my "guard line"
BUT THE ENTIRE MESSAGE. So, let me try again:


Has anyone had any experience with L(ocal) A(rea) N(etworks) for the IBM pc?

Specifically I need to link up several pc's to an AT and use it as a file
server and to run an inhouse database.

I need information on operating software and hardware. I need to know about
the various field/record/file locking capabilities.  If you have had any
experience with specific setups please let me know by mail.  If there is 
enough interest I will summarize and post to the net.
