I'm not an expert or from Apple Computer, but I do have a workstation
card :). I haven't tried putting it in my GS (I'm out of slots :), but I
don't think there's any reason why it wouldn't work... If you really
want to know, send me some email and I'll shuffle some cards around
and try it out :) Anyways, the Apple II Workstation disk has a LOGON
program that will let you connect to the server, as well as a Chooser,
Namer, and logoff prog.

I'm not sure if the disk is ftpable... I didn't see it in the /dts/aii
dir of ftp.apple.com, but it might be somewhere in the mac dirs. It's
on the developer CDs though.
