I don't know about Lantastic, but we're doing just that with Netware Lite.
What we've done is to use ODI drivers with a ODI <--> PKT converter, so to
TCP/IP (NCSA TELNET) it looks just like a Clarkson driver & Novell is
quite happy also.  Anyway, all this stuff is available from FTP sites.
Something like this:

	Telnet ---- ODI2PKT ----\
                                 ---- ODIDRV ---- [NETWORK CARD]
        Novell ---- IPXODI -----/
