You won't be able to use the client as provided on the XP install disk (it's available on the XP Pro disc, but not in the XP Home disc) The confusing bit is that the "Client service for NetWare" seems to be listed -- it's not really usable as the driver isn't actually on the disc (you're allowed to select it, and it seems to load something from the disc -- but when you try connecting you get the error message "driver not found"). What you'll need to do on XP Home is to get the Novell Client software from the Novell website. One other thing that you might hit a snag upon with NetWare 4.11 and earlier -- the selection of IP vs IPX/IP as the protocol -- it depends upon how the server has been configured.
