ORIGINAL QUESTION:

>
> Does anyone have NetWare Sunlink running?
> If so, do you like it?
> If you decided on a different design for Novell connectivity, why, how?

> Does NetWare Sunlink run on Solaris 2.3?
> What is the performance like?

> Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

Well, the votes are in:

(4) said that they are using it and like it.
(5) said that they evaluated it and didn't like it
    and they choose to go with a NFS solution.

Some other information included:

NetWare Sunlink is not a product under Solaris 2.X because
Sun is going to be able to run the IPX protocol WHEN 2.4
is released.

Some people said that it ran like a pig under Solaris 1.1
and others said that it runs great. (?????????)
