PC Clients

I am running DU 3.2 on a 2100 with a bunch (2.6 GB) of ArcInfo data on a
3rd party RAID system. This work fine for the folks editing the info,
but I have about 40 people spread around on our wide area network
(TCP/IP and IPX) who need to get at this data with ArcView to publish
maps. These 40 folks are mainly Novell Netware users running Windows
for WorkGroups, NT, or Windows 95 with a few Macs thrown in for good
measure.

These folks are currently getting to the data via a Netware 3.12 file
server which NFS mounts the volume from the Unix box. This causes
slight delays (not much because the NFS is happening on a FDDI ring) but
the major problem is that this Netware box is too touchy and crashes on
a whim.

I am hoping for some recommendations on more direct/better ways for my
clients to get to this data. Thanks in advance
