Subject: [OS2NetWare] Re: Two NICs w/IPX bound; second doesn't work

FWIW, I have confirmed this behavior. Once I make the association and 
log in, I can maintain it between wired & wireless connections. The 
whole idea is bass-akward, if you ask me, and should have been 
upgraded/fixed/replaced by v2.0 of the requester.

We need a new NetWare client. (See my minor tirade on this on the OS/2 
Wireless List a few minutes ago, or on the list archives at 
www.2rosenthals.com/lists/os2-wireless_users in a day or so.) As I'm 
currently studying for my CLE (Certified Linux Engineer) practicum 
(which is focused mainly on Novell Nterprise Linux Services, and not on 
Linux itself), scheduled for 12/21, I am spending quite a bit of time 
with SLP, Directory Agents, etc.; essentially all the stuff which is IP 
based to which we have no direct access, and this is getting downright 
frustrating (though it is kind of fun to administer my SuSE server 
running NNLS 1.0 from Mozilla on OS/2, and run all the terminal stuff 
from an SSH session on my OS/2 box!).

Okay, I'll just calm down again, now. Sorry to be a bother, and thanks 
for listening... :-)
