- Has anybody had any experience with Novell's gateway software
- called " MultiProtocol Router". I've heard with it one could
- place an application (e.g., ORACLE or similar data base) on
- a PC that does not have Novell SEVER SOFTWARE ON IT.
-
- I have an IBM PS/2 Model 95 as File server (35 nodes/workstations),
- and recently acquired a DELL 486DX 50MHZ (w/500 MB Hard Disk) for
- use as data base server. Somebody said one could connect the database
- server to the Novell Server (Model 95) with the use of Novell's
- MultiProtocol Router software. If true this would save buying a
- fifty user copy of Novell for the second PC (DELL 486).
-
- Anybody had any experience (Good/Bad) with Novell's gateway software
- in similar setup? Any drawbacks?
