    Do anyone have a customer who have DECconscentrators ,DECbridges
    and Compaq Systempro Novell servers with Network Peripherals NP-EISA/S
    adapters ?
    
    If yes, does the adapters work well with our FDDI equipment ?
    
    Do anyone have a reference site ?
    
    Do anyone know if we have a discount agreement with Network
    Peripherals ?
    
    Do anyone have the Network Peripherals US adress, telephone and Fax
    number ?

    adapters ?

We have his exact configuration in our lab.
   
    If yes, does the adapters work well with our FDDI equipment ?

It interoperates with our equipment but as far as a usefull adapter well ...
    
    Do anyone have a reference site ?
    
    Do anyone know if we have a discount agreement with Network
    Peripherals ?

    number ?

Send your customer to DECWORLD and look for our FDDI Adapter announcements if
they want a real FDDI adapter.

519.2HELP NEEDED IN CONFIGURING NOVELL & FDDIQCAV01::ARAMANWed Nov 23 1994 00:3225
 The config we have at customer site is FDDI dual ring with the
DECbridge 900MX DAS port, Pentium Server with DEFEA-DA (DAS) port on the
dual ring. Novell ver 4.01 has been installed. However access from a 
client (PC) connected to DECrepeater 900TM is unable to connect to the
Pentium Novell Server on FDDI, although it can access another Novell Pentium
Server connected to a ethernet port of the DECbridge 900MX thru Novell.

We need the following now to proceed further :

 Whether we need to do anything special with DEFEA-DA on Novell?
 Whether Novell Ver 4.01 is sure to work with DEFEA-DA (FDDI)? Or we need
   higher versions of Novell (4.02 is available and I understand Ver 4.2 is
   announced)!
 We may perhaps test out Server to Server communication on FDDI keeping
   two Novell Pentium servers on the dual ring. (for this we need the
   shortshipped DEFEA-DA urgently)
 Any other suggestions?


Thanx & regds.
