Does anyone know of a microcomputer data communications package that will work with the X.25 protocol. What I'm trying to do is dial into a "remote access unit" attached to a Novell NetWare (3.11) network. The remote access unit is essentially a diskless pc that boots off a Novell server. This pc is then connected to an X.25 network. I'm using a public access telephone line to dial into an X.25 "terminal server" that then connects me to an X.25 network (in the UK) and from there to the Novell network. The problem is that most commercial communications packages available in the US do not support file transfer over X.25, as far as I can tell (maybe I'm missing something). Since X.25 does some error checking, I'm not too concerned about error correction in that part of the line. But i wonder if someone knows of a protocol or package that will support X.25 on both the call and answer side. Please reply by e-mail. thanks john hogan ecsvax!john@uncecs.edu (212) 563 3006 ext. 259
