I'm and trying to setup a small ethernet lan for my own use that consists of
1 workstation (NCR PC916- a full 386/16Mz machine) and a non-dedicated
fileserver (286 clone with a SCSI drive) running Adv 2.15.  The ethernet cards used are Novell NE2000 compatibles.  I originally had functional problems on the NCR due to higher bus speed.  Then subsequently I set a jumper (equivalent to
jumper W16 on a NE2000) to correct the weird symtoms.  BUT still, I get the
message

	FILESERVER NOT FOUND

after executing IPX.COM, then NET3.COM.  I ran COMCHECK on the two machines and it worked.  On the non-dedicated server, I can login.  So, I know that the
server is up and running.

Does anyone have any idea of what's going on???  Did anyone use the 
NCR916 on a Novell network?  If yes, what NIC card (hopefully ethernet) did
you used?
