    My understanding of the method is that the file server in the
    Novell Netware system also has TCP/IP implemented. A user's PC
    forms a connection using Netware to a server process in the
    machine that also runs the file server and that process permits
    a TCP/IP connection to be formed going to the desired destination.

Well, I meant something more along the lines of each PC being its own
IP host (rather than TCP being a resource a remote server provides [I
hesitate to call the server a translating gateway]) where a user
could have both file service and TCP/IP software (say SMTP), without
the two applications fighting for the interface's interrupt...
