Re: MTU/tcpdump Token-Ring Patch



I'm certain IPX worked in 2.1.96.  That's about the time SPX went into
the kernel and I set up a Netware 4.01 server at home with the express
purpose of testing IPX against a reference implementation over
token-ring.  I'm also pretty sure I tested IPX on my 2.1.103 development
system before I hacked it.  I'll reload vanilla 2.1.103 and verify
that tonight.  

Does IPX work at all? (slist, ncpmount, etc?)  Which token-ring driver
are you using?  Does the interface configure for IPX or does it fail
that as well?
