Brian.  We're in the process of setting up our first Mac/Unix
network using the Locus PC-Interface Mac software.  The reports
I've seen on this product have been excellent, but this is our
first time and I don't speak Apple (can you spell ``Get Your
Lawyers Off My Computer!'':-).  This server is available on
several platforms include SCO 3.2v4.

Our installation here is using a Sun Sparc running SunOS 4.1.3
which caused a large moment of panic when it wouldn't install
properly and Locus support said initially it was only supported
on SunOS 4.1.<3.  We found out very quickly after another phone
call to Locus that it was only an installation script problem and
they provided us with the info necessary to install on this
system.  It installed and the Sun boots properly.  Now if we can
only figure out how to run a Mac (I have to unlearn a lot to run
one of these things :-).
