     Hi,

I have been using the Wollongong software for the PC, in combination
with NOVELL and a WD8003 card. By the way, Wollongong looks a
lot (!!!!!!!) like PC-IP. The combination of these three software packages
resulted in a awfull performance (retransmitions). The problem went away
when installing the latest version of Western Digital IPX (NOVELL) driver,
The novell documentation also contains a heap of warnings about
certain switches on the WD8003 card ( 6 Mhz <-> 8Mhz).
So there is a problem in the combination WD8003 <--> PC-IP/Wollongong.
The people of Western Digital have the answer, and if they are out
there, I sure would like to know the problem.

Jan.
