NetWare using IP

Hi, Bill -

Netware 5 supports IP-only networks but Microsoft's
Client Services for Netware installs IPX/SPX by default.

I've never tried to unbind IPX/SPX from a network adapter
or uninstall the protocol with CSNW installed but either
might be worth a try. Unfortunately I don't have a
Netware 5 network handy I can play with to test things.

I'm willing to bet there's someone here that knows a lot
more about this than me, though. Maybe someone else will
chime in.

Good luck -
 
Sure, the answer is yes. The Microsoft client doesn't work too well, but
if you install the NW5 client it gives you the option to use TCP/IP or
IPX. You can also select TCP/IP and uninstall any IPX that might be
configured. That works best for me on a TCP/IP network.

With NW6, you can throw the NW client out altogether. Hurray!
 
How? I can't get the Microsoft Netware client to work at
all with Novell SBS 6. Also, how do you get rid of the NW
client, ZenWorks, etc. - this stuff is awful!
