Hello Bit Fans,
I am researching the possibility of creating a TCP/IP network in
an office to share various printers and other devices. However,
many questions exist that I have not been able to iron out.
1) Has anyone attempted or know how to perform a Xenix Tar backup
through a TCP/IP connection from a Xenix/386 to a ibm PC with a
tape drive or Iomega cartridge system?
2) What incredible benefits does installing a TCP/IP network have?
3) Has anyone finally managed to get Xenix to play fileserver for
a Novell Network. Does Novell realize how much $$ they could make.
4) How well can a TCP/IP share printers and other output devices
between other Xenix !AND! IBM-PC's connected to the network.
I hope the answers to these questions interest others as well. While
SCO has been making noise about their TCP/IP product, I have seen little
information on how it can be used and implemented.
Thank You!
