 I left out one small (hah!) detail in my original posting on this subject:  We
are a Class B network, subnetted as class C; the WAN portion of our net connects
subnets of our Class B net.  According to the Gateway System Manual (the Nov. 90
version, for 8.2), page 5-59:
 
   The redistribution mechanism is not supported for subnets.  Only routing
   information about entire networks can be exchanged in this manner.
 
I take this to mean that I can't simply redistribute the IGRP routes via RIP to
my NetWare router processes.  I may be wrong, though; I'm rather new to this
game.  
 Thanks to all who've responded thus far; I appreciate the input.
