Microsoft VPN and Novell using IPX/SPX

[Andy Harlan]

I am connecting to a Windows 2000 Server with a Microsoft
XP VPN client. I have enabled IPX/SPX on the VPN server
and the VPN client. I am trying to connect to a Novell
server on the network using only IPX/SPX. I am unable to
connect to the Novell server although I connect to the
server successfully. Can anyone help me connect?

Probably not, as I don't believe IPX/SPX will route over a TCP/IP
VPN. (Though it's been a long time since I had to deal with IPX...)
Use TCP/IP on your Netware server, and ask in a Novell support forum
for a better answer.
