How are network/node numbers of Novell *WORKSTATIONS* selected? In TCP/IP, its assigned (network number (Class A, B, C, (D, E), subnet, and node). These are (usually) statically assigned. In AppleTalk, the network number and node number are randomly selected (as defined in the protocol definitions). In DecNet, you have an Area number and node number. These are statically configured. Whats the deal with SPX/IPX? (XNS?) Does the workstations` IPX address change according to which server(s) its attached to? Thanks in advance. --tony
