PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Failure to use this PTF in heavily loaded token ring environments may result in the following types

This IPX.COM shell has been generated specifically for Netware LANs using IBM Token-Ring
adapters only.

Configurable.
To Use this PTF:
Copy the IPX.COM over the existing like file, in the appropriate boot directory. No reconfiguration
is required. It MUST be used in conjunction with IBM LAN Support.
