- Looks like a routing problem. Are you sure, that netmask and interface
- adresses are such that routing is done properly ?
- If that's not the problem, what is your exact setup ? Is your IPX generated
- for the IBM Lan Support Program ?

- What about an ODI-driver and PC/TCP's tokdrv kernel with their odipkt
- shim ? And - have those WD cards a Lan Support Program compatible driver ?
- Then you should be able to run ibmtoken and ipx concurrently.
