Actually the Novell TCP/IP stack is in the process of being bundled 
with the TCP/IP add on at no extra cost.  It's available now as a "pre-
release" for those that can't wait for a nice install porogram and 
documentation...

tkevans is certainly correct about the network card :-) unless you go
in with SL/IP, but the current version of the Novell transport does
not have SL/IP.  I heard on comp.protocols.tcpip.ibm the next version
is supposed to.
