I have two Netbios related questions and any answers will be appreciated:-

1- In a Novell network which has Lotus servers using IPX/Netbios protocols,
   can we access the remote Lotus Servers through our Cisco routers ?
   Will the Netbios interface be transparent over the WAN since IPX does
   the routing ??

2- For a PC LAN which uses Netbios over TCP/IP as a protocol, how does
   a user access the remote server over the WAN ?
   Does he have to use an IP address or configure NetBios tables ??

   Thanks in advance.
