I'm having funny problems with the Novell Netware OS/2 Requester.

I can't get it to work on my home LAN with Extended Services using LANSUP
or ODINSUP.  Extended Services still works with RDS (NetBIOS) when I use
LANSUP and the IBMTOK driver, but with Novell's TOKEN.SYS, Extended Services
won't work.

The symptom is the usual one, NW0015: Error getting connection ID (0x880F).

Now, Novell never documents any error messages in the  manual, and, when I
call them, says they require $150 before they'll listen to me.  (As I replied,
they have an interesting, albeit self-serving, concept of who is supporting
whom.)

I have gotten this requester to work with ODINSUP and TOKEN.SYS, but not
with LANSUP, at another seemingly identical Token-Ring LAN!

Does anyone out there have any ideas as to what I might try?  This is an
ISA bus machine with 16/4 ISA board, 33MHz 386, OS/2 2.0, Extended Services.
