- The PKTMUX TSR will allow you to run multiple TCP/IP applications (with
- their own stacks) on one packet driver.* I use this successfully to
- run Wattcp apps, POPmail and NCSA/CU Telnet along with BW-NFS. You can
- fetch PKTMUX from the same place you get WATTCP (sunee.uwaterloo.ca
- [129.97.50.50] in pub/wattcp).

- * For some combinations of net s/w, when the wind is just right and
- the tide is out. Your mileage may vary. Void where prohibited by
- law. Don't tell your NFS vendor your problems while using this, and
- don't tell me either! :-)
