- My request for information or possible solutions for creating Mac access to DOS
- cd's over Novell using SCSI Express received only two replies:
-
- >We currently have our mac users get into our databases by connecting to our
- >dial-in server with Novell Onlan communications software (without using a
- >modem, direct connect to the server). From there they log into our PC-Lan
- >and connect to the databases (Ours are cd databases loaded onto a 5 gig
- >scsi hard drive) This seems to work quite well.
