Does anyone know of any good tutorials on how to configure IPX/SPX between
Windows XP and Windows 98SE over a WAN?

Is there a reason you need that protocol? Generally you only need TCP/IP
to network computers, including XP and 98SE. Do you need to connect to
a Novell network?

You are STILL confused.
You can't "...configure IPX/SPX between Windows XP and Windows 98SE over a WAN?" unless you
Tunnel IPX/SPX within IP.
Novell does provides a IPTunnel driver (TCP port 213) but if memory serves me... You want
to network WinXP <--> Win98 via IPX/SPX over a LAN.

| Not necessarily so, this depends on router configurations. I work for a

| tunelled) across a WAN.
This is NOT scahool district, this is a personal SOHO LAN. John could not afford a CISCO
Router that will Route mutltiple protocols and John is on Comcast "X-WBNR-Posting-Host:
67.161.24.12" and the ONLY option would be an IPTunnel for IPX/SPX.

| Novell supports pure IP connections since Netware 4.2

He's not connecting to a Novell server. John's desire is to run a networked DOS game
between Win98 and WinXP boxes and "supposedly" the DOS game is IPX/SPX compliant.

Novell 4.2 was not the version where it was "pure IP". It started the
transition.
