I'm running Windows 95/Netware/NT.  I've got my 95 stations logged in to an 
T
Domain, a Netware 4.1 tree, and attaching to a n older 3.11 server as well.  
We're using Novell for the "file serving", while we use NT for our
"applications server"  (E-mail, web, etc)  I've had it up and working for 
awhile now, if you need any help let me know.
And as for logging on to another network.  If I'm not mistaken you can still 
map a drive to a different server without logging out of your current 
etwork.
Under your server types tab in 95 uncheck the box labeled "log on to network" 
and play with that.

Chris
