We've got a new Dell P5-100 that has got a 3COM 5X9 "NIC" on it.  I've got
ODI/VLM running (novell login no problem) just spiffy, but cannot get the
ODI PKT driver to work (to run Winsock, NCSA DOS Telnet, etc).  Anyone
have any suggestions or running a similar setup on their LAN?  The
following info loads fine, as does winsock, but NCSA telnet reports
"network jammed; probable break in cable" and all win suite apps (ewan,
netscape) are dead in the water.  I've already updated to the latest 3COM
and netware drivers, to my knowledge... 

The AUTOEXEC has the following net stuff:
	lsl.com
	3C5X9.com
	ipxodi.com
	odipkt24 1 96
	vlm.exe
	winpkt 0x60

And here's a copy of NET.CFG:

LINK DRIVER 3C5X9
	FRAME ETHERNET_802.3
	PROTOCOL IPX 0 ETHERNET_802.3 
	FRAME ETHERNET_II
        PROTOCOL IPX 8137 ETHERNET_II

NetWare DOS Requester
	FIRST NETWORK DRIVE = F
;        USE DEFAULTS = OFF
	PREFERRED SERVER = FISHNET

Anyone know if there's a conflict or incompatability?  Am I doing 
something ignorantly wrong here?  I've tried many tests to no avail, so 
any help would be fantastic...Thanks.
