Do you just need IPX/SPX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPX/SPX), or do you need novell client software, so your windows machine can log on to a novell network? You may want to check novell's netware website: http://www.novell.com/ I believe RA2 just needs IPX. Windows should support that (go to properties on you LAN connection and add it as a protocol). edit: IPX/SPX is not available on XP64. See here: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/...all/proddocs/en-us/ras_lan_protocols_ipx.mspx I believe novell has stopped supporting it as well (in favor of TCP/IP).
