- Summary: Need help with odipkt conflict with Norton AntiVirus

- Background:
- We just got a bunch of IBM PS/2 model 56's with IBM's Adapter/2 for
- Ethernet (a disguised WD Ethercard Plus for Microchannel). The drivers
- that came with it were from back in '90 and bombed when used with
- the Norton Anti-Virus v2.0 stuff in config.sys. I got newer stuff from
- IBM and that didn't get me much further. Called Symantec and they told
- me to get the LSL.COM and IPXODI.COM off the Windows 3.11 disks.
- Reinstalled windows to get the stuff decompressed and that worked as far
- as getting IPX running over ODI (LSL + IBMODISH + IPXODI).
-
- Given that we are running a public-access lab, need virus protection,
- and NAV was bundled with the machines, we're anxious to have it coexist
- with all other softare. Now for odipkt.
-
- The remaining problem is between odipkt & Norton AntiVirus. I can't find
- anything newer than the odipkt v1.1 that I have (tried archie). Maybe there's
- a configuration-type solution to this via NET.CFG, but the documentation
- is sparse enough (Novell v3.11's ODI Shell book doesn't even mention
- envelope types, only frame types) and I'm pretty new to this.
-
- All suggestions gratefully accepted. If I get a bunch of me-too's, I'll
- go for a summary when I either get it working or punt.
