I understood Cisco to say that when DEC released token ring connections that
Cisco would deliver support.  While it is true that DECnet across token
ring is supported, we have not yet been able to make it work because of the
havoc that it played with our Appletalk token ring mail servers.  We now
are waiting for a new 'network destruction window' so that we can test the
suggested work around.
 
But, DEC has Pathworks on token ring and supposedly Proteon can route this
back over to the servers on ethernet.  So where is the promised capability?
 
If I sound a bit frustrated, I am.  I have to manage several VAXen in 
New York over a 9600 BPS line that hosts other traffic.  I had a hard day.
When one of our new young techs came in this afternoon wanting to know how
to connect to Pathworks from token ring, I realized that I was tired of
making excuses for this.  I told her to buy a Proteon router!
