    I am testing a Cabletron DNI ethernet card for my pc, and want to
   be able to use the BYU Novell IPX.COM generated to use the packet
   drivers. The cabletron card has its own packet driver that I have
   found to be compatible with NCSA Telnet. But the driver doesn't
   have a -n option like the Clarkson drivers vers. 9.0, to allow the
   8137/802.3 packet conversion to work with dual Novell/TCP protocol
   stacks.

Arrggghhhh!  I've told Cabletron that they're welcome to the little snipper
of code that implements -n.  I'll forward your posting to them, and tell
them that Yet Another person wants -n.
