Well there seems to be a number of knowledgable people here in these
newsgroups.  I wonder if someone could answer a few questions for me.

Does Novell's UNIXware support the following?

   1) DMD layers (ie. AT&T 5620, 630, 730)
   2) At least 6 Gigabytes of SCSI disk
   3) NFS and RFS
   4) 8mm SCSI tape backup (Extabyte)
   5) An X.25 interface/test suite?
   6) Multi-Processor support

I know there are versions of SCO UNIX that have 3rd-party versions of
X.25 drivers and 8mm Tape drivers.  Are there many 3rd party vendors
that write code for UNIXware?  (I know quite a few vendors writing code
for the Novell LAN, but we aren't planning on using the LAN until
sometime next year.  We would like to start out with PC/NFS)

I'm sure this will be no problem if the AT&T/Novell sale goes through,
but what is the current state of affairs?

I tried to direct the follow-ups to comp.unix.misc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mike
