Novell: Direct Hosting Works on ODI Drivers Only (107579)
This article was previously published under Q107579
SUMMARY
If you have Windows for Workgroups 3.11 running on a Novell network,
Windows for Workgroups will support direct hosting only on machines
running Novell's ODI drivers.
MORE INFORMATION
Direct hosting is a new feature in Windows for Workgroups 3.11 that allows
the virtual redirector to interface with the IPX/SPX Compatible protocol,
bypassing NetBIOS. This new technology allows the redirector to transfer
data faster across the network.
For direct hosting to work correctly, the IPX/SPX Compatible protocol must
be installed. This protocol cannot be installed on machines running IPX.COM
or ArcNet; therefore, direct hosting does not work on these machines.
