YES!!  there is a NETBIOS packet driver in the Clarkson collection
that will sit on top of LANtastic's Netbios and using ka9q as a
router will allow you to access TCP/IP hosts/networks. I have 
tested this and works quite well. Details are included in the
NB.NOT file with the netbios driver and gives config parameters
for ka9q.
