- I'm confused. (not saying much)
-
- Is your plan to gateway the NNTP traffic between "VAX1" and "UNIX Box" so MXRN
- can read news using DECnet ? If so, you need a DECnet/IP gateway for NNTP. We
- don't currently supply one.
-
- Or is your plan to run MXRN on "VAX 1" and display the X windows on "UNIX Box" ?
- If so, you can use the X11 Gateway program on "VAX2" to do this.
-
- Cheers!
