At work (Social Security Administration, Saipan, Northern Mariana 
Islands), we have a small network of 386 PC's running Novell 
Netware ELS II.  We use a product called Brightwork Remote which 
allows us dial-up access to the network from a remote PC.  This 
software runs on a dedicated machine on the LAN on which all 
processing ocurrs.  The remote PC simply sends keystrokes and 
displays screens -- sort of a remote dumb-terminal.

Is there any Mac software which would allow me to access the LAN 
in a similar manner from my home based Mac+?  I intend to do some 
work at home and would like to avoid hauling a MS-DOS laptop 
around.

E-mailed suggestions would be appreciated.
