Date: 21 Mar 1996 14:10:33 GMT Organization: Exec-PC Lines: 15 Message-ID: <4iro0p$da2@daily-planet.execpc.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: earth-le1.execpc.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Could somebody tell about the upcoming IPX support in the -Current release. I am not up to trying it yet, but may find a use for IPX. WHy is that being added. Will it be in preperation for portable Netware (I think a waste of effort.) Or, will it be a native protocol and usable only from one FreeBSD machine to another? Most importantlly, will there be some kind of Gateway from IP to IPX (Hey, I can dream can't I!) -- Jeff Kane jkane@execpc.com Sysop - Home Brew University BBS Brew City Campus 414-238-9074 Genealogy Search: Brickner, Kane, Kimbro, LaClaire, Snyder|Snider, Seecs|Seetch|Sich, and Thorton.
