- Just to add to Dave's observations...
-
- The October beta of NT comes with support for a few common TCP/IP-based
- tools, including ftp, telnet, and rcp. We use these in-house at SGI,
- and they seem to work fine. I transfer files from my Indigo running
- IRIX to my MIPS Magnum 4000 running NT every day.
-
- I'm told that a company called FTP is developing a good NFS package.
- With that installed on your NT systems, you could use an Indigo
- running IRIX as a file server.
