I hope I am posting this to the correct forum, if not my apolog-
ies.  Anyways, here goes:  We have only 6 computers in our 
engineering office which we would like to Net together for the
sharing of files and peripherals, but not operating software.
Each of computers run Windows 3.1 with most software and the heavy
duty stuff at the DOS prompt.  I heard that with Windows NT and in
a more immediate fashion Windows Workmate?? that we could Net the
system using EtherNet cards and not have to use a file server.
I am totally unsure of my facts, but would like to further investi-
gate the possibilities.  Corporation wise we may become part of a
larger scheme of things, ie Novelle, but untill that time comes in
a year or two it would be nice to trade in the `tennis shoe LAN'
for a low level NET with an obviously great GUI.  All comments
E-mail or otherwise are greatly appreciated. Keep the Faith, PJ
