- Xedoc has in fact released NetInfo for Sun Workstations.
- A SPARC Server version, RS/6000 & HP (and others) are nearing completion.
- NetInfo from Xedoc *is* compatible with NeXT's 3.0 release of NetInfo.
-
- For more information please contact me directly.
- Please indicate how you would like to receive the info (ie fax, NeXTMail etc).
