We're presently gathering information about workstation LANs,
particularly those which support heterogeneous hardware
configurations.  For example, we forsee the need to hook up Apollos,
Suns, MacroVAXes and the like.  I am looking for *any* information I
can get on:

1. Networking schemes (e.g., Ethernet, IEEE 802.2 standards, etc.)
2. Personal experiences with this sort of problem.
3. The degree to which various hardware vendors support the various
   services.  E.g., when a vendor claims to support NFS, how easy is
   it *really* to drop one of their machines into a network of Suns?
4. Support for TCP/IP.

References to useful publications or articles, informal personal
anecdotes of experiences in this area, other electronic mail 
contacts -- any or all of these would be extremely useful.

Please send replies directly to me, as I do not presently subscribe to
this mailing list.

Thanks in advance.
