        From the results I got back it looked like the first choice was TCP/IP
 1.2.1 with NFS and X server from IBM. Second was the PC/TCP and NFS for OS/2
from FTP Software:

        FTP Software
        2 High Street
        N Andover, MA 01845

        508-685-4000

And Third was LANWorkplace for OS/2 from Novell. I don't know if it has NFS
support or not.

        For further information you can try calling

        1-800-NETWARE (1-800-638-9273)

        Novell's Curstomer Information number.

For Email the product of choice is CC:Mail from Lotus.

Thanks for all the answers I received!!

Thank again,
