Does this give a UAE on your Windows+NetWare system?

Hardware: IBM PS/2 55 SX w/4 meg, 3Com 3C523 adapter
Software: IBM DOS 5.0, MS-Windows 3.1, LSL v1.20, 3C523 MLID v1.20,
          IPXODI v1.20, NETX v3.26.  NWtools for Windows updated using
          WINUP5.ZIP (note: WINUP6.ZIP has no newer files that I can tell).
          I'm using the HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.EXE that came with Windows 3.1.
          Server software is NetWare 3.11.

Boot, load network drivers, login.  SYS:\PUBLIC mapped to Z: drive, first
in path.  Start Windows (on my system it's installed in C:\WINDOWS).  Open
a MSDOS window.  Run Novell HELP utility.  Press Escape to exit HELP.  Run
HELP again (in the _same_ DOS window).  DOS window then dies with the message:

                      Application Error

            WINOLDAP caused Segment Load Failure in
            module USER.EXE at 0001:9C10.

Press Close button.  Now you get back to the Program Manager, but anything
you run kills the program manager with a UAE at the same address.  Eventually
you may get something like:

EMM386 Exception error #06 - press ENTER to reboot

Isn't Windows _FUN_?
