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
