Yesterday, I ran across someone that has developed an IPX shell driver that runs over an NDIS driver. I don't know any details as to its price or distribution, but I recall that several on this list were asking about such a beast over the past few months. Person's name is: David Poole Spry Inc. (206) 286-1412

The 'Connectivity for NetWare' package has now been shipping for some time, and runs over NDIS (it was developed under a cooperation agreement). For those with an eye to the (near) future, under the new licensing deal with Microsoft (!?**@!) this product will ship as part of the core LM 2.0 system later this year.

I have just started to investigate the use of NDIS drivers and have two questions that may already have been addressed in this forum prior to my interest in NDIS. Are there PD NDIS drivers available with or without source? Does anyone know of a IPX over NDIS patch or product? Thanks in advance!

I don't know of any NDIS drivers that are explicitly public domain, but I think most vendors distribute them pretty freely; after all, they only work with the vendor's boards. I don't know of any that are available in source form. James B. VanBokkelen 26 Princess St., Wakefield, MA 01880 FTP Software Inc. voice: (617) 246-0900 fax: (617) 246-0901

Additionally, they are bundling with their latest version of TCP/IP, again implemented under DPA.
