I think it's Netware 3.12. Frame type is 802.3. I'm pretty sure I have the necessary stuff in my KERNCONF: options IPX options NCP device miibus device xl pseudo-device ef # Multiple ethernet frames support options ETHER_II # enable Ethernet_II frame options ETHER_8023 # enable Ethernet_802.3 (Novell) frame options ETHER_8022 # enable Ethernet_802.2 frame options ETHER_SNAP # enable Ethernet_802.2/SNAP frame I think my problem is in ifconfig xl0 ipx ... and my general ignorance about networking. I've tried various things using the "ether" number from ifconfig and guessing at the network number, then I do: ncplogin /MYSERVER:MYUSERNAME but I always get: ncplogin: can't find server MYSERVER: syserr = Network is down I have looked at the archived stuff on this question, but apparently I need some hand-holding here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
