This isn't at all what the discussion was about!
And a typical example of: "I don't now anything about the subject, but my
opinion is...."
Many people, me included, have heterogenous networks !inhouse!, e.g.
tokenring and ethernet, coming together in one server, or different segments
of ethernet.
They do not join the internet at all, but have the problem, mentioned in the
first posting, to make ipx-packets tunnel in whatever way from one segment to
another.
So, do have any _usefull_ hint, concerning this subject?
regards, Chris
