FTP Software Inc., of Boston, MA., has a package called PC/TCP.  It is a
very nice set of commands for the PC or Compatible that includes;
lpr,  finger,  ftp, tftp, host, iprint, mail, rcp, rlogin,
rexec, rsh, telnet, and many more.
    It will run with various hardware interfaces on the PC.  We used
the 3com model 3c500 interface card, one cable, and one EtherNet
transciever.  The software took 20 minutes to install after reading the 
manual for about one hour.   It worked the first time.  The FTP commands
are very very nice and fast.   File transfer worked at rates that make
KERMIT and XMODEM look sick and dying.   It supports wild cards for 
transfer of many files at once.
     If you have several Unix hosts and a lot of PC's, this is a great
way to integrate them.
