Hi Folks,

We are considering to buy some Sun workstations (about 12 machines).  But
we are in doubt to buy a Sun fileserver (money-problems) or we want to let
our PN9000 (Gould) operate as a server.  Is there anybody who has done
this. I mean a Gould computer (PN9000/ NP?) as a server for a cluster of
Suns. I am curious about the experiences with that. Is the a PN9000 fast
enough to do that? What are the problems that arise?  Maybe there are
people who has done this with another machine than a Gould computer.
Please tell me about it.

Thanks.
