>>Then you're actually running NetBEUI over Novell, which will add to the network traffic; depending on the situation this may add up to a large slowdown, or pass unnoticed, or anything in between. Another thing is that it takes some fiddling around all the stations involved. When it works, it works nice. I remember having done that without knowing two protocols are running concurrently at all - printed to a Novell remote printer using IPX, and printed to a W95 station's laser using NetBEUI. Worked fine, but this was just a six machines shop.

Well, it was back at the times when we were trying out the Win95 beta, and just clicked around trying to get it all up and running. It worked, and later I understood we used NetBEUI over IPX, when we actually should better have done it the way you said. Well, one always learns. Today we'd surely do it some other way.
