142.0. "PC integration and SINIX" by LUX01::FLAMION (MENVU G�rard) Thu Jul 02 1992 18:32

    We are currently working on an RFP for one our major customer.
    
    The request is for up to 500 networked PC 486 (SX or DX) 70 in a first 
      time. 
    
    BUT ... they want to use their existing SINIX systems (running UNIX 
      system V R4) as PC server, including a remote boot facility!
    
    My question is : how to solve this problem :
    
    proposed solutions :
    
      1) Use our PC with an Ethernet card providing a Boot P facility
        problem: -Is Siemens providing this possibility with their SINIX ?
                 -Witch ethernet card can we propose ?
    
      2) Use our PC with an ethernet card providing a MOP remote boot.
        problem: -Can we install a remote server on a SINIX system ? 
                 -Witch ethernet card can we propose ?
    
    PS: After this first phase, we plan to propose our Office solution 
      (A1mail, TEAMlinks, TeamRoute,...) currently in evaluation.
    
    Any solution, pointer are welcome,
