Our site is running Oracle on a Sparc 10 with all (actually most) of the clients being PC's. we have our UNIX network linked up with the Novell one through a server, and all of the clients can use a PPP program to establish a tcp/ip link to our server. We are currently using a program called win/qvtnet for the client ppp links, and I think the unix server in between the pc's and sparc 10 is runnig sun-pc.

hope this helps.
