You should see a series of messages come up on the server screen when IPX and NETx are loaded that say get nearest server, give nearest server, etc. etc.. IFF you get these messages, then I would say your cables are OK, and you should start looking at the IPX and making sure they are configured properly to the cards. Otherwise I'd recheck the cables. Cable diagnostic stuff is available, some more expensive than others. GOOD LUCK!
