IBM's TCP/IP with the NFS package will definitely do this. According to PC  
Week, IBM also has a low-cost peer-to-peer solution in alpha-test that is  
apparently derived from the peer-to-peer part of LanServer 3.0. The good  
thing about TCP/IP, of course, is that you can add virtually any kind of  
machines to your network and they will interoperate.
