The Starlan 10 PC NAU, EN100, and fiber NAU in combination
with the WIN 386 3.0 TCP/IP product will product all of these
capabilities.

You can run UUCP between AT&T machines using TLI.  Some people
here are also working on getting it going over TELNET as well
to non-AT&T machines and terminal servers (note that this
doesn't work over TELNET currently).

There are NFS and RFS versions that will also run over these
product combinations as well.

PC-NFS for our PC-TCP product should be available by calling
FTP Software directly.  It's about a $100 add-on.

The Starlan 1 MB and 10 MB PC NAUs have been certified with
Novell.  The EN100 and Fiber NAU probably haven't.
