Novell's IPX/IP Gateway *is* ready for prime time, and it's integrated with
NDS to allow you to configure IP access features via NDS.  Better yet, it
uses Novell's 32-bit client, which is flat out missing in the IWare product
at this time.  Since it's 32-bit, you can use 32-bit software with it on
Win 95 and Win NT workstations, which is not possible with the IWare
Connect product.  (To be fair, Quarterdeck has recently announced a beta of
their new 32-bit version.  I will be checking it out eventually.)
