Subject: Stack overflows when connected to Novell/Ethernet (Turbo problem)

A program of mine shows "Stack Overflow" errors when it is run on
certain computers connected to a Novell file-server newtork.
The program runs fine on those same machines (an 8088, and an
original IBM PC retrofitted with a 286 motherboard) when they are
not connected to the network, and runs fine on other
(congenitally 286 and 386) machines connected to the network.

The machines which work do have extended memory, but I don't
think it is being used--there is the same amount of memory
available from DOS on all machines.  The , same ethernet hardware
and software are used by the (problematic) 8088 and the (no
problem) 286.  The program location identified with the error
message is spurious as far as I can see.

I can't figure this one out.  Any ideas?

(The programs do not even USE the network)
