Depends on which IP stack you are using on VMS.  Probably should tell
us everything you can about your system.  What version of VMS.  Which
IP stack (UCX, MultiNET, TCPWare).

Am I safe in assuming your PC's are running XP?

I thought you ssaid earlier you were running Excursion.  Now I am the one
getting confused.  There are a number of packages ranging from Free to
verty expensive.  The right one depends on what you want to do and how
hard/easy you need to make it for your users.

See statement above.

See statement above.
