To communicate with Unix machines, you must have a TCP/IP
protocol stack that DESQview/X can communicate with. The
following products are compatible:
FTP's PCTCP
HP/Lanman TCP/IP
Novell's Lan Workplace for DOS
PathWay Access (from The Wollongong Group Inc.)
BW-TCP and BW-NFS (from Beame & Whiteside Software Ltd.)
PC-NFS (from Sun Microsystems)
I remember playing around with it a long time ago - I think I used PC-NFS with it.
