Unix Workstation on a Netware server

[atifmc]

Can someone help me get my unix workstation on a Netware Server. The protocol being used is IPX\SPX. :confused:

/me is *very very* confused.

netware isn't very polite about sharing working ram with other oses...

I will assume for the moment that you wish to CONNECT to a netware server from your *nix platform?

1) make sure ipx is running on the *nix box... since you say Unix ... I cant be sure how to do that.
2) make sure that the addressing is correct. IPx/SPx is very different from TCP/ip ...especially in the network/host split.
3) gimme SOMEthing of a clue to work with... what type/version of *nix -- what networking hardware is involved, what connectivity there is ... (directly cabled? through massive network? through local lan? routers? switches?)

The OS is Linux7 and the network card is
3com Etherlink III Bus Master PCI Adapter
I am connecting through a router( star topology ). And yes I want to connect to a netware server from my linux7 platform
