I don't know what sort of budget you're operating with; but LW4DOS isn't
a "necessity".  You can get along with public domain software (NCSA Telnet,
CUTCP) and still have the IPX connection.  The specifics are boring and
tedious, but its not terribly difficult.  There are some nice things
with LWP4DOS (IP Tunneling from the PC's, windows DLL) though.

Also ODI is free, so you can get that right now w/o having to buy LW4DOS.
Just ftp to sites like netlab2.usu.edu or download it from CI$.

Netware NFS will "only" let you have a FTP server on your Netware server
(i.e., you could FTP to your netware 386 3.11 server and download files
from it).  LWP4DOS (or NCSA Telnet, etc) allow individual PC's to actually
FTP to the rs/6000, etc.  I don't know about the LPD daemon, there is
public domain/freeware software (Charon v2.0) to do that.

Yup.
