subject: IPX for OS/2

Hello Haavard!

 HM> Is it possible to use the IPX.SYS (or VIPX.SYS) shipped by OS/2 Warp
 HM> Connect in any OS/2 app?

 HM> I mean, how can I access IPX in an OS/2 Textmode session in the same
 HM> way as from DOS. Thanks *any* help.

Novell offers a Developers Kit for this purpose. You can access some lib's
and headers on ftp:ftp.novell.com, maybe directory /pub/??/04 ? difficult
to find and even more difficult to find the most recent working one... It
seems Novell started to write a 32 Bit API but never finished, so most
parts of the Requester an specialy the IPX/SPX part are good old 16 Bit
Code.

  Bye/2, Johannes!
