I am setting up a FreeBSD machine (2.2.5R) using a 3C509 ethernet card.  If
I connect the machine to a network which has TCP/IP, IPX/SPX and NetBEUI
traffic running on it (and in addition Win95 machines list 3 Com DMI Agent
and IPX-32 bit protocol for netware Client 32) the FreeBSD can neither see
any other machines nor be seen by any other machines.  It does complain of
getting an unknown packet on an unexpected port from the Novell server.  If
the same machine is connected to a different (sub) network that is running
only TCP/IP traffic all is well and in fact it can ping, telnet etc to
machines on the Novell network.

Is there something else that must be configured for FreeBSD to run on a
Novell lan?


Cheers
Charlie Reese
