(Network's not connected yet since my firewall isn't quite ready :( While FreeBSD is really cool, I think I may get some resistance to converting all my users from DOS to FreeBSD. Given that they may be running DOS, or worse, DOS + Novell, what is the best way to allow them to access my FreeBSD server? I have been told that there are some reasonable public domain TCP stacks for PCs running Windows. Any recommendations as to what I should be looking for? Also, if I can tune up my firewall, I would like to get them running X. Are there versions of X for MS-Windows out there? What is likely to be most compatible with my FreeBSD system? Thanks, Hugh Ellis Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
