The article referenced above talks about improvements in a forthcoming
release of AlisaTalk.

I believe other disadvantages of AlisaTalk relative to PacerLink are:

	1. No support for standard VMS security

	2. Spooled LaserWriters must be on LocalTalk rather than on the VAX 

Are these things fixed in the new version?
Also, does anyone have any comments to make on PacerLink installation on
VMS. I have been having trouble getting the Kinetics side of things to work
on two different VAXes for reasons that the distributor here is unable to
explain. Anyone?
