Okay, now I really do have a question about this. I have a RH5 box serving ipx; when I type slist on that box, it finds itself like so: [michael@alice michael]$ slist Known NetWare File Servers Network Node Address -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALICE C0A80126 000000000001 We don't have any actual NetWare servers on our LAN, but we do have some M$ machines exporting drives over IPX, and as you can see they aren't showing up. I can go to another machine and see alice via tcp/ip, and I can mount my home directory via samba, but on a machine which only has IPX and no tcp/ip, alice isn't visible. The slist command from another ipx-enabled linux box also fails to see alice or any other IPX-serving machine in our office. Is this a frame type issue? I have my frame setting in /etc/nwserv.conf set to autodetect, but maybe the absence of a real Novell server means that there's nothing to detect from? Does anybody know what the default frame type is under Windows95 or DOS7? In case it matters, I'll throw in alice's nwserv.conf file, minus all the comments and the "you probably don't want to change anything below this line" section: 1 SYS /var/mars_nwe/sys rk 1 CDROM /mnt/cdrom kmr 1 TECH /home/tech k 2 ALICE 3 auto 1 4 0x0 * AUTO 1 5 0 6 0 7 0 10 99 11 99 12 SUPERVISOR adm * 13 TECH tech 13 MICHAEL michael 13 MICRON5 micron5 16 1 If it would be helpful, I can also forward printouts of the /proc/net/ipx* files.
