- The IPXODI Driver
-
- The IPX shipped with NetWare Lite (IPXODI) is not new and is not
- special to NetWare Lite. Novell has made a general decision to
- convert from "linked" IPX to IPXODI. IPXODI is shipped with the
- LAN Workplace for DOS product, and with DOS/Windows shell kit.
- Novell will convert from linked IPX to IPXODI for red-box NetWare
- in the near future. IPXODI is functionally identical to the
- linked version of IPX, although the LSL offers multiple-prtocol
- and MLID capabilities. NetWare Lite can be run on top of either
- (but not both) linked IPX or IPXODI. STARTNET.BAT, which is
- created as part of the NetWare Lite installation, should be
- modified to NOT load LSL (the odi driver) and IPXODI if linked
- IPX is already being loaded elsewhere (like in your
- AUTOEXEC.BAT).
