This product (the interlink) works quite well,
we have one here at the State University of New York at Buffalo,
it is something of a pain to make it fully transparent..
setting up a alias such that a vms user can treat it as if it were
another vms machine he had a account on requires special permissions
on the ibm. This means that most users must include their account
password and minidisk in every reference.. other than that it works
very well.....we are at last getting some use out of our 3081
as a file server and print spooler.....

usual disclaimers... I have no relationship with interlink other
than as a happy user.. and can not comment on how it is from
the implementer/maintainers point of view
(or the person who has to pay for it)
