dos ipx in windows98?
I have a basic ipx network (lsl.com, packet driver, ipxodi.com) on a 486 with an accton nic, but my windows 98 box, with the ipx protocol installed, can't see it. the connection works when i boot both to dos, so I think the problem must be with my windows setup. Help?

Well when you are logging in with windows you are logging on the the microsoft network IE "netbios". But loading lsl.com, packet driver, ipxodi.com you are esentiually loading a shell to connect to a Novell server thats why windows isnt seeing it because it has no way to identify it on the network.

You should use the Microsoft Network client for DOS to communicate between the MS machines. The novell client will only see a Netware server. You can try to enable File and Printer sharing for NetWare networks, and the Client for NetWare networks on the Win98 box, but I don't think it'll work.
