Let me know if you find an answer! I've got the same task, connecting Amigas,
PCs and a Mac together. Currently we have CBM's Envoy networking software and
2095 or whatever it is CBM ethernet cards.
It looks like I'd have to use NFS/TCP/IP to get them all talking. There is an
Amiga TCP/IP that some students wrote recently. I don't know about any NFS
(network file system based on Sun's UNIX standard) software to plug into the
sockets that TCP/IP provides. Supposedly there is PC NFS and PC TCP/IP
available, and maybe the NCSA can provide TCP/IP for the Mac (not sure there).
On the more expensive but easier side, there's always Novell.
