Sorry for the cross posting.  I never do this but am totally uncertain
where the message should be placed.

Here's the problem I'm having which I hope someone might help.  

We run a novell server running under DOS 5.0.  Needless to say the work
stations run under DOS 5.0 and the ipx netx are loaded in the autoexec.bat
file.  As we upgrade to windows 95 machines I've found this doesn't work. 
The date on the ipx.com is 6/20/89.  The date on the Netx.com is 3/11/92. 

The question is how does one run a Windows 95 (workstation) and still
connect to this aging Novell system.
I've tried using the protected drivers supplied with Windows 95 but I must
be doing something wrong.  Can someone advise me if this is possible to do
OR point me to a FAQ.
 
Upgrading the server is not an option at this time.

Thank you,

Alan
