The ipx-code in DOSEMU seems to have an ipxodi interface: I can use
the NOVELL VLMs to get a connection to a novell server; AFAIK require
the VLMs an ipxodi-interface. There is a protocoll-converter
ipxodi to ndis. As Microsoft uses an NDIS-interface to an network card,
this configuration might work for you. The converter was name
ODINDISUP.COM and I used it 5 years ago. I don't know if Novell is
still distributing this software.
