>Has anyone set up networking with the Novell stuff included in OpenDOS?

Yes. I have. I've set up an OpenDOS machine to speak to my local Novell
4.01 server and to act as a Personal Netware server.

The only real trouble I had was a complaint while loading the VLMs that
the supplied version of one of the VLMs doesn't do checksums and therefore
shouldn't be used with 802.3 packets. It seemed to work fine, but then I suspect
no one's been garbling my 802.3 packets...

I've gone back to the Novell DOS client I was using with MS-DOS to get rid of
the message; I also have no need for Personal Netware here.

I also have OpenDOS running on a machine with Windows, speaking Microsoft's
TCP/IP stack using Windows' ODI to NDIS shim; however, as I said before, I'm
using my original Novell client instead of the one shipped with OpenDOS.
