Subject: DLSw V1.0 Interoperability Test information

From: [email-masked] (Allen Goldberg)
Date: Tue, 5 Sep 95 12:10:12 EDT

Enclosed is the following:

- information that I presented at the AIW8 last week.

- Final list of participants for the DLSw V1.0 Interoperability Test

Please note that participants should bring their own null modem cables
for SDLC connectivity (I believe this was unclear at the AIW8).

Additionally, we will be planning to provide PU 2.1 connectivitiy via
both TR and SDLC on PC's running CM/2. To clarify:

  - PC to PC for all PU 2.1 connectivity testing (both SDLC and TR 
    configurations will be supplied)
  - PC to PC for Netbios testing (TR only)
  - PC to mainframe for testing PU 2.0 (both TR and SDLC configurations)

For those participants who have not yet send in their $100 registration
fee (for covering expenses), please do so as soon as possible. 

If there is any additional information that you require besides what I 
will be mailing out, please let me know.

Lastly, please check/send me the contact name/address for your companies
representative to ensure the package will be received in a timely manner.

Thanks,
Allen
