[comp.sys.novell] Trouble with 3c505 and packet driver, can you help?

I'm posting this for a coworker.

We are trying to use the BYU 3c505 version 8 packet driver to run both tcp/ip 
and Novell on one machine. The machine in questionis a 286 clone. The following
is the section of my autoexec.bat that loads the driver and loads/logs on to the
Novell server.

3c505 -d 0x60 5 0x300 0xd000
ipx
net3
set path = h:\;%path%;
cd\
e:
login freeman
c:

Everything seems to work just great. I can start up applications on Novell and
do all kinds of things, exit out of them, etc. I can also run tcp/ip (both KA9Q
and cmu-pcip) and it works. I can telnet, ftp, ping and so on. But when I try
to exit the tcp/ip software, the computer hangs up and will do nothing but
blink its cursor at me.  I have tried  loading the packet driver with the -n
option as well but then tcp/ip doesn't work and I still get hung up when trying
to exit. I have also tried loading the version 8 IPXPKT on top of IPX ( with
and without -n and -d options) and attaching that packet driver in KA9Q as well
with the same problems.

So I would appreciate any suggestions or known cures for what is either a bug
or my stupidity! Thanks in advance, Jay Freeman.

WE would be very interested in talking with anyone doing this now, since we 
posted this note to comp.protocols.tcp-ip, we have experimented our brains.
out cannot make any progress.
Thanks,
Bill
