I need both to work on the ethernet card. The *same* ethernet 
card.

Well, I've got *one* ethernet card in this old 486. And I need 
to have both TCP/IP and IPX working on it. Not so much for 
Arachne, but so I can quit using dialup UUCP to fetch email 
for a couple of domains. The modem will stay for Fidonet. 

After all, I've got an 1800/256 cable connection (going to be 
3000/384 in January) so why waste the time on the phone line?

For that matter, I'd be able to support various Fidonet over 
IP protocols on that box if I can get IP working.

I need the IPX, because the files are on the Netware server, 
and it's old (3.1x) and isn't set up for IP.
