Hello -

I am attempting to get a FreeBSD box to connect to a Novell Netware IPX
server.  After playing around with stuff, I managed to get as far as
installing NCPLIB from the ports and trying to run it.

bash-2.04# ncplogin /QC1:mylogin
Warning: no cfg files found.
ncplogin: can't find server QC1: syserr = Network is down

The QC1 server is not down, nor is my computer disconnected from the
network.  I believe that the problem (somehow) is with my IPX
configuration.  All I have done is put the following in my /etc/rc.conf

/etc/rc.conf:
	<...>
	network_interfaces="xl0 lo0"
	<...>
	ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"
	ifconfig_xl0_ipx="...typed my MAC address for XL0 here..."
	ipxgateway_enable="YES"
	ipxrouted_enable="YES"
	ipxrouted_flags="-s"

Any help would be appreciated.  Also, I haven't yet subscribed to the
list, so if you could kindly forward any responses to my email
account.  Thanks for the assistance.
