#define quoting(Mark) // Unfortunately there's no chance of moving to Eth. II. You don't need to move to ethernet II. You just need to bind ethernet_ii to the server's interface, and bind *another* IPX network to it. I've always ran netware with 2 or even 3 frames for IPX in each interface, and there's no problem in doing that. The only problem is that, since each bind is a different "network", each broadcast will be sent once for each bind. Also, traffic from a host through the router should go first to the server to be converted from 802.3 to ethernet_ii. In this sense, the server is also acting as a router between the frametypes.
