There are 2 ways you can do this with MS-Kermit and Novell's Client Kit:
1)
Run an ODI driver, and define a Protocol Kermit that uses a Frame Type
Ethernet_II as described in the docs for MS-Kermit. (I can supply a couple
of examples when I'm back at work, so email me if you want them).
2)
Run Novell's TCP/IP transport (TCPIP.EXE) and do a SET PORT TELAPI host, where
host is the name or IP address of the Unix machine.
ftp.novell.com has updates for the Netware clients which are worth considering
if your Netware client software isn't current.
If your Unix host is running Novell's Unixware or other Unix supporting
Novell'sNVT/NVT2, you can also load the client NVT.EXE TSR and use MS-Kermit
with a SET PORT BIOS1, but you lose some memory and/or functionality compared
with the 2 previously mentioned methods.
