to run windows on your net, you not only need version 3.01 
shells, you will need some updated utilities (like the new 
MAP.EXE that allows you to map netware directories as fake root 
directories so windows won't clobber your drive mappings).

if you have access to compuserve, you can obtain the shell kit 
from novell's netwire forum.  GO NDD and download DSWIN1.ZIP 
through DSWIN4.ZIP.  These files include installation 
instructions.  Then GO NOVA, LIB 6, and download DSWIND.ZIP, 
which contains the drivers you need to gen the latest shells that 
appear to be bug free (3.01 Rev. D).

Then you need to run SHGEN to gen the shell for your network 
infterface card.  You can then use EMSNET4 to load your 
nic-specific shell in high memory, but the new verson off ipx 
still had to load in high memory.

if you don't have a compuserve id, there may be someone on the 
net that has them available by ftp?
