I have a faculty with a CD-ROM drive in his machine about to connect to our 
3.11 network.  He wants to make this drive available to a few of his 
research associates.  

Our original plan was to install Windows for Workgroups on the three 
machines, but our local software dealer informs me that W4W and NetWare 
cannot coexist (presumably because of the falling out between Novell and 
Microsoft), and he recommends Lantastic.

Lantastic will be a more expensive solution (Microsoft gives great 
educational discounts), plus it's an unknown quantity because we've never 
used it here before.

So, faithful net, will W4W work with NetWare, or should I go with Lantastic, 
or is there something behind door #3?  Thanks for any help.

Chris
