What you want is Novell Netware 3.11 with Netware NFS.  It will
probably run you somewhere between $6,000 and $15,000, depending on
how many users your Netware license is for.  Plus, of course, the cost
of the PC hardware.  It will do everything you need, except for
SLIP -- I don't think Novell has any SLIP support.  You will probably
have to get a router with SLIP or PPP capabilities, attach it to your
net, and have your remote stations dial into the router in order to
talk to the server.
