	Interactive Ported Netware allows you to mount NetWare server
 	with NFS to other NFS servers, and you can also mount
	NFS servers to ported NetWare server. The NFS is stantard feature
	of Interactive Architech Network and workstation packages.
	In our office we have many UNIX NFS servers, and one Ported
	netware server and this configuration works finely.

 	There is NVT ( Netware Virtual Terminal ) terminal emulator
	supprot in product without extra cost . It supports any
	DOS terminal emulator that supports INT 14 interface. I have tried
	public domain 	MSKERMIT and commerical product called Reflections. 
	If somebody have information about Windows 3 based terminal
	emulators that supports NVT i am wery intrested.
	With NVT you can connect to UNIX server, and from UNIX server you can
	use telnet or rlogin to access other TCP/IP hosts.
