I wonder if there is anybody who can help us with the following:

We wish to transform 3 NOVELL nets and 1 Ethernet backbone with TCP + Unix 
hosts into ONE logical net!  Although we will probably have to compromise 
somewhere, we would like the following:

	o  Full FTP both ways (simultaneous sessions).
	o  Telnet from PC's on the PC-net to Unix hosts, with vt100-
	   emulation.  At least 10 simultaneous sessions.
	o  SMTP both ways (i.e. SMTP server also on PC-net server).  
	   However, we could accept PC-users having to check their mail 
	   box on a Unix host.
	o  r-commands on the PC's.
	o  We would *like* to interface Unix hosts' lp-systems to spool
	   queues on the Novell servers (i.e. lp over TCP/IP).   

Cards used:

Net 1:   Server - PCNIC + 2xNP600.   PC's - PCNIC
Net 2:   Server - NP600 + 2x3C505.   PC's - NE1000
Net 3:   Server - NE1000 + 3COM+.    PC's - NE1000

Possible solutions we know about already (but haven't yet tested):

Wollongong WIN/TCP & WIN/ROUTE.  
Netware TCP/IP Option (MICOM-INTERLAN).

I have heard that there is some public domain software somewhere around,
but don't know where.  We can accept alternative solutions if we can 
realize the above requirements. Although we would like to change out as 
little hardware as possible, we are prepared to change out the network
cards if it will help us to realise our goal.

Maybe all of this is just wishful thinking.
Please mail me directly as i am not a regular reader of this list.
