Can you tell me what you're trying to do? Access a Netware server
from the internet? Or allow IPX-only workstations internet access?
For the latter, Novell's Border Manager is a firewall product that
allows ipx-only stations to have internet access. I haven't played
with it. (fyi, MS's proxy server theoretically allows this too, but it's
ugly!)
For the former, I've played a very little with pptpd on my linux box,
and was able to connect from a remote workstation via pptp and
log in to my Netware server. This was to Netware 5 via IP, though.
I haven't had time to try it with ipx yet.
Hope this helps.
