Hello, I would like your advice on the solution I thought for this connectivity problem There is a TCP/IP + LanManager U lan with a HP 9000/8xx server that needs to be connected to a remote Novell IPX Lan. The connection MUST use a private X.25 network to connect the two lans. The traffic between the lans will probably be mail (SMTP), ftp and maybe WWW. My idea is to use 2 Cisco 2503 (not sure of the model) and connecting the two lans to the X.25 provider with ISDN since traffic won't be very heavy. Install a Linux box on the Novell lan and add TCP/IP to all the MS-Windows clients. The LInux box would become a TCP/IP server; in this way there shouldn't be problems with the current installation. Someone suggested to install TCP/IP on the Novell server; I wouldn't want to do so since Novell will be dismissed in the future Any other ideas. Please let me ask you for CC: your replies to my email address eb@vax.cnuce.cnr.it since news article at my site expire after just 2 days Thanks in advance Merry Christmas eb

There is a company called Eicon Technology (www.eicon.com) that sell boards to X.25 connectivity. We sell those in Brazil, and it is not a bad solution, maybe they are working in Linux drivers :-) ! >have you considerd NT on a meduim sized server, microsoft provide some excellent gateway >products & NT will handle TCP/IP as default - it could be considerably cheaper. >NT3.51 IS a mature product now and I have very few problems with it What are the routing protocols options in 3.51 ? They have something with more options than in 3.5 ? [], <O-O>
