I am interested in how one sets up the most flexible Netware client machines 
- ie not restricting who uses the machine or what OS they run. Bootware ROMs 
seem to offer one way of building in flexibility and central management.
With the moderator's permission I'd be interested in some of the mechanics of 
a Win '95 client of a NW machine that avoids storing "state" information on 
the client machine but allows any user to use any machine, retain their user 
profiles and as you mentioned being able to chose DOS / Win 3.X / Win '95. 
We're running NW 3.12 here if it makes any difference.
