- Hi,
-
- in my new project I need to have both protocols, IPX/SPX and TCP/IP, on one
- OS/2 machine with one network adapter (16-bit SMC). At the moment I am
- running OS/2 1.32. I will update to OS/2 2.1x later. The TCP/IP product I
- am using is IBM TCP/IP 1.21 for OS/2 1.32 and later.
-
- IPX/SPX is needed to connect to a Netware 3.1 server for both file access
- and access to an Oracle DBMS running on the Netware server.
-
- TCP/IP will be used for an RPC-based application and to import/export
- NFS file systems.
-
- I heard about ODI drivers for OS/2. Is that what I need or are there any
- better multi-protocol solutions ?
-
- The same problem will arise for DOS/Windows clients at a later stage of the
- project. Is there a similar solution ?
-
-
- Thanks for any info, Ernst.
