QUESTION:  [How] can I connect a PC-XT (with either a NIC or NIU board)
	   on an Ungermann-Bass broadband LAN to a NFS file server on 
   an ethernet.

   I know I need to bridge the two LANs (specific suggestions
   and/or products welcome), But... is PC-NFS, or NFS for that
   matter, dependent on ethernet (arp etc.)?

   I know I could create a gateway machine running PC-NFS and
   MS-NET or Novell and put both broadband & ethhernet boards
   in it, but I was hoping for something a little cleaner.


           Flames welcome too, but please keep them short.
