Hi Mark, I stumbled over something in Linuxconf the other day (at least
the version that I have on mdk7.1 here). Open it, in Config select
"Networking", and from there select the option "IPX interface setup". From
there you should be able to get something going. In config you enable IPX
networking, and in Adaptor1/2/3 you should be able to find the proper
frame-type (802.2 or 803.2 is my best bet, who uses Snap these days...)

Dunno how you'd have to proceed from there, but this could be a start.

Hahahaha!!! (Why am I not surprised??) At work my Win NT setup falls over
about once a month.
