   1.) We have a Novell 2.15c network and wish to use TCP-IP at the same
   time as Novell.  Which TCP-IP package do I need?

A large number of them will work over the packet drivers.  This
includes Sun's PC-NFS, Beame and Whiteside, James River Group, FTP
Software, and The Wollongong Group.

   Where can I find the latest packet drivers, I know that the -n
   swith did not work in version 8 but did it exist in any of the
   earlier versions?

It's fixed in 9.x, the announcement of which doesn't seem to have gotten
to this newsgroup.

   I will need to rebuild my IPX.COM with the files from NOVELL.EXE,
   right?

Yes, and econfig it, too.  If you don't want to econfig your server,
you'll have to use the -n switch.  If you go ahead and econfig your
server, you won't need -n.
