We recently have hooked up a few Novell PC networks ( not on the main net ). Several people have expressed intrest in hooking up to the main ethernet. My question to you is: Can the protocols co-exist on the same ethernet *and* can the PCs and UNIX boxes talk to each other? Also, can CMC thinwire repeaters pass thru Novell packets? Any other related information would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail directly to kes@gvl.unisys.com since I rarely get a chance to read this newsgroup.
