I am using a Mac II for general purposes and require rapid file
transfer to Sun workstations and/or VAX.  From there, my files will be
automatically backed up daily.  I recently purchased Fastnet III as the
ethernet card.  I am looking for software to allow "transparent" file
transfer.  That is, I would like the host to look like another disk
drive on my Mac.  I can just drop files or folders into it without
thinking, almost.

Obviously, TCP/IP from Dove is not what I require.  Will Pacerlink do the
job?  Are there any others that would provide the transparency I require?

Thanks for any information you can provide.
