G'day. I'm running a linux box w/ an ethernet connection (in Kowkow).
I'm interested in being able to exchange IPX packets with a Win95
machine connectiong via dialup.

The options I've come up w/ are this:

1. Some sort of IPX over IP tunneling

Unfortunetely, I've found no suitably cross-platform method.

2. PPP (or SLIP, or the like) carrying IPX over telnet over IP

This is easy to do from the linux side of things. I have no idea how to
make the Windows side of it work, however.

PPTP would work in Win95 were able to serve it (as a linux client's
available), but it's NT-only.

Thoughts?
