ViaNet?

[Jason T]

I recently ran across a manual and disks for a PC networking product
called ViaNet. It was marketed by Western Digital and targeted toward
Arcnet, although it looks like it worked with Ethernet and other
topologies.  There isn't a lot of info out there about it but there
are a few pieces in the old trade mags on Google Books.  It was
peer-to-peer between PCs, but there was also a UNIX host server
product for it.

Anyone ever worked with it?

I scanned the manuals and posted them here:
