Summary: Rhodnius ?? Empress-32
Xref: mnetor comp.databases:530 comp.dcom.lans:867

since this seems to be a general interest thingum, i use a product
of 'Rhodnius' corp.  called Empress-32, which is a full rdbms
sporting excelent lan support.  i use it on a lan that is fairly
transparent tho, and i don't know anything about the novell stuff.
my application is currently an inventory control system; the peices
of which may reside anywhere on the lan, with users throughout
the lan able to access the database(s).  we use xenix/OpenNET*
intel systems.
rhodnius seems to have expended much effort to make this system
fault tolerant: i have several times crashed my system during heavy
database activity, and never have corrupted the data. (i seem to always
have a consistent version, tho i may loose the current update).
