Yes, but the Token Ring driver I looked at in the version 8 packet
driver distribution seems to want the IBM PC LAN Support Program
loaded.  I don't want to load it, and would much rather have a token
ring packet driver that either loads with or coexists with
Novell's IPX that speaks directly to the Token Ring adapter.  Is there
a freely available way to do this?
