on a normal workstation, himem.sys coexists just fine with 
xmsnet4.  if you're trying to use a nondedicated server as a 
windows workstation in 386 mode, you're probably out of luck.

nondedicated servers are a kludge that should be avoided if at 
all possible.  i don't even let my els clients use their servers 
as workstations, since it costs them too much of my time to try 
and get things to run properly.
