Generally, I have everything working fine with Arcnet and Token Ring
with Novell's requester and Extended Services.

There is one problem, however.

If I use IBM's NetBIOS, that is to say, don't put in the BINDINGS=NETBIOS$
and ADAPTER0= etc. stuff, on the Token Ring system it is possible for me
to access the Extended Services database from remote clients and from
DOS/WIN programs on the *same* machine.

However, once I change to Novell, it is no longer possible to access the
database on the *same* machine, although the remote clients still work
OK (with Novell's NETBIOS instead of the LSP, of course).

I'm not happy with this because neither LSP nor ODINSUP support Arcnet.
Any ideas?  My conclusion is that something is wrong with Novell's
NetBIOS that it doesn't allow local clients.
