SUMMARY
To use Microsoft SQL Server on a Novell NetWare network with Microsoft
Windows for Workgroups clients, SQL Server 4.2b is required. This product
contains the Microsoft Network Integration Kit that allows SQL Server DB-
Library clients (MS-DOS, OS/2, or Windows) and ODBC clients to connect to
SQL Server using native SPX connections over NetWare, as opposed to using
the Novell named-pipe implementation.
The Novell OS/2 requester client software (DOSNP.EXE), a terminate-
and-stay-resident (TSR) program that allows use of named pipes with
IPX.COM, is no longer required to connect to SQL servers on Novell
NetWare networks.
