   We have a large ethernet based network on the Acadia campus with one
   exception.  The Business School is currently using arcnet to access
   our main Novell server.

   Is there some other solution, perferably PD, that would provide novell
   arcnet users with ethernet-like telnet and ftp services?

Yes.  A university such as yourself can use Phil Karn (KA9Q)'s NOS to
route packets between ARCNET and Ethernet.  You'll need to FTP it from
thumper.bellcore.com:pub/ka9q/nos/src0302.zip, and recompile it, turning
ARCNET on.  Then you'll need the ARCNET packet driver, FTP it from
sun.soe.clarkson.edu:pub/packet-drivers/drivers.zip.

   Please reply to me directly since I don't normally read this group.
   Thanks.

Sorry, if you're unwilling to invest the time to read the group, I'm unwilling
to help only you.
