I do know Win 95 seems to act differently at different times but we are
using Win95 + Novell 32 Bit CLient and logging in to Shiva Remote units
with both version 3.5 and version 4.0 of Shiva's software. I can use
Intell Netport manager software, NWADMIN95, NDSMGR, Pconsole, Rconsole
etc. All with no problems whatsoever. I think Shiva and MS are playing
point the finger (especially as Shiva supports MSs PPP for Win95/Win NT
as it's standard access method).
