I will have the same problem when out 286's and 386's arrive. I will not
be running Xenix but Bell Technologies Unix System V/386. 
I am led to beleive that VP/ix will support Novelle networks (this from
Sun Microsystems in Sydney) and I was wondering the same thing as David:
Has anyone actually done this ? I don't really care about logins. The powers
that be just want mail facilities (for the moment !).

I'm a grad student who has been roped in to network the machines together
so I don't really want to spend that much time on it !

Please, if anyone has done this thing and has mailed David could they also
mail me or post to the net as I think other people would possibly be
interested.

		Thanks in advance
