Subject: IPX/SPX mounting in FreeBSD 2.0R


	I have several servers, and systems running various operating systems.
I love the ability of FreeBSD to mount to several of these weird systems.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to figure out one thing, so I am asking
for help. 

	I am running a 486DX50 with a MSDOS partition and a FreeBSD
partition. I spend most of my day in unix. Sometimes I will be
asked to change a password on a Novell NetWare Server 3.21. I am then
forced to reboot my system, and utilize the MSDOS partition just
so that I can execute "LSL, SMC8000, IPXODI, & NETX" to mount a
netware drive. If their is a way that I can mount a Netware drive
in FreeBSD, I would be able to skip this lengthly process.

	My system has XFree86, and a copy of PCEMU (The unsupported
MSDOS emulator.) I am not able to run those drivers in this program.
I have attempted to contact the original programmer of pcemu, but
have had no luck.

	I am asking if anyone can point me in the correct direction to
either mount an ipx/spx Netware drive in FreeBSD, or where to
find a MSDOS emulation program that may have more capability in the
aspects of networking than pcemu. If anyone has actually been able to
mount netware drives in any way in FreeBSD, I would love to learn
how I can do the same thing.

	I would appreciate ANY help...
