Western Digital also provides a pair of Netware/Packet drivers which can co-exist with each other and share the same Ethernet card concurrently. You just need to SHGEN your IPX with their Netware driver. When their Packet driver starts it will check to see if their Netware driver is already active, and if so it will use the Ethernet through it. Thus for the WD cards there should be no need for the BYU stuff. ...Sam --
