Eligibility Criteria: Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18 to 70 years. * Histologically proven non-Hodgkin's lymphoma * Relapse after achieving initial remission or failure to achieve initial remission. * KPS \> 70% * Matched related or unrelated donor identified and available. Donor must be a complete match or have only a single allele mismatch. * Recent Bone marrow biopsy and cytogenetic analysis * Patients must have a pretreatment serum bilirubin \< 2 x the institutional ULN, a serum creatinine \< 2 x the institutional ULN and measured or estimated creatinine clearance \> 50 cc/min by the following formula (all tests must be performed within 28 days prior to mobilization ): Estimated Creatinine Clearance = (140 age) X WT(kg) X 0.85 if female 72 X serum creatinine(mg/dl). * Patients must have an EKG within 42 days prior to registration that shows no significant abnormalities that are suggestive of active cardiac disease. * Patients must have an echocardiogram or MUGA scan within 42 days of registration. If the ejection fraction is \< 40%, the patient will not be eligible. If the ejection fraction is 40-50%, patients must have an exercise echocardiogram or dobutamine-echo with a normal response to exercise. * Patients must have a corrected diffusion capacity \> 50% prior to the autologous transplant and \> 40% prior to the allogeneic transplant. * Patients with known allergy to etoposide or a history of Grade 3 hemorrhagic cystitis with cyclophosphamide are not eligible. * Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breast-feeding women are ineligible due to the known birth defects association with the treatments used in this study. * Patients known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive are ineligible because the concern for opportunistic infection and hematologic reserve are considered to be significantly greater in this population. * Patients with prior maligancies diagnosed \> 5 years ago without evidence of disease are eligible. Patients with a prior malignancy treated \< 5 years ago but have a life expectancy of \> 5 years for that malignancy are eligible. * Patients with uncontrolled infection. * No prior autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Donor Selection/Evaluation: * Related or unrelated HLA identical donors who are in good health and have no contra-indication to donation. * No contra-indication for the donor to collection by apheresis of mononuclear cells mobilized by G-CSF at a dose of 16 µg/kg of body weight. * Virology testing including CMV, HIV, EBV, HTLV, RPR, Hepatitis A, B and C will be performed within 30 days of donation. * No prior malignancy is allowed except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer or other cancer for which the donor has been disease-free for five years
