Sb: #TCP/IP Gateways
Fm: Darrell Cheatham 76701,44
To: anyone
We have a TCP/IP Internet - are there any products that would allow us to login
to a Novell File Server over this Internet? I've heard of a Micom TCP/IP
Gateway...any comments?? I also downloaded IPX-IP.txt, has anyone purchased
this product - and if so - does it let you logon over the internet?
Thanks,

Micom which is now Interlan Gateway only supports access from the LAN to the
TCP/IP system. It does not support accessing the LAN.

NetWare 386 will eventually allow TCP/IP (and other protocols) to be a peer to
IPX/SPX. I'm not sure what this means about Internet access to NetWare
servers, but maybe someone from Novell could comment.

NW386 will eventually support multiple network protocols in the server, so
that, in the case of TCP/IP, TCP/IP workstations can access the Netware server.
(The likely use of this would be in conjunction with some type of NFS NLM which
would allow TCP/IP-NFS machines to communicate with the Netware server via
TCP/IP, and do a NFS mount of the Netware drive on their machine)

Both commercial, and public domain products that run TCP/IP and IPX
simultaneously at a PC workstation are for connecting to both Netware and
TCP/IP hosts. You use IPX to connect to a Netware server, and TCP/IP to connect
to a TCP/IP host. The Micom gateway lets a Netware server run the TCP/IP to a
TCP/IP host FOR another PC workstation.
You say that you have a TCP/IP internet. What you need to explore is some type
of product that will let you route IPX packets over your internet. Like
bridges/routers/brouters etc.

Jason, That is what I am looking for...Do You know of any products that support
that type of bridge/routing ?? I'm especilly interested in a SW solution, one
that would use to etherlink cards in a Novell File Server, 1 running IPX and
the other routing TCP/IP. I'd be happy to leave a phone number/mailing address
to get the info. Thanks ---

If I'm reading the information correctly, NetWare 386 should eventually provde
that capability directly.

Darrell,
If your intent is to stick a PC workstation somewhere on your TCP/IP internet,
and have it be able to establish a connection to a Netware server, then the
internet has to route both TCP/IP packets, (what it does now), and IPX packets.
The product you need, depends on the configuration of your internet. If you
have no bridges/routers/brouters between your intended WS location, and your
intended server, you might not need anything. If you do have one of the
aformentioned products then it needs to route both IPX and TCP/IP packets.
(CISCO was pointed out by someone else in this thread and is just such an
example..) You might be able to do it with Netware bridges, but if your
internet is a common one, it would be very difficult.
Having TCP/IP supported on an Etherlink card in your Netware server, buys you
nothing. You would need some type of TCP/IP Netware shell for your PC, that
could establish a connection with the server using TCP/IP. That would also
require some type of software on the server as well. To my knowlegde there is
no such product.

Darrell.... I'm not sure (I've jumped in in the middle of this conversation),
but there is a program by BYU that does both TCP/IP and IPX routing through an
external bridge. It allows workstations to access both IPX and TCP servers on
the ethernet backbone. I'll check my notes and get back to you this week. Let
me know if this is simular to what you're looking for.

cisco Systems Routers will pass IPX packets through their routers, as well as
TCP/IP. There's a lot of overhead when using multiple protocols on the routers,
and it tends to slow them down. The cisco products work very well, you can
contact cisco systems at 800-553-2447, they're located in california.

Thanks for the feedback.... I am looking into the cisco router option....I'll
post any info I find.
I have 2 Novell Networks running over Ethernet. Also running, over the same
Ethernet Cables, are TCP/IP and several other protocals (XNS...). I think, I am
looking for a gateway at each end to convert the IPX into TCP/IP and back
again. I do have Novell File servers at each end, and am looking for some type
of internal bridge that would route the local IPX stuff accross the internet to
the other Novell file server. But, and external bridge may be a good solution.
A dedicated PC at each end that can handle the routing/conversion.
I may just have to wait for 386 - and if so thats ok.

There is a West German company that sells a hardware/software solution for
bridging servers via TCP/IP. It also lets PCs on the IP network to login to a
Netware server. I remember the cost is $1500 for a ethernet board and
software. If you want exact info reply and I will look it all up.
I seem to remember a posting on the Internet by someone at Wollongong that
talked about encapsulating IPX packets into IP so the IP network would act as a
bridge between servers. The network programmer here thought it would be a
trivial task, but has not had the time to check it out.

I've heard of this West German company as well... but I don't have
much info. I'd appreciate a pointer to them.
Certainly, IPX/NCP over IP will be the best solution when offered with
NetWare 386... I would guess that we'll see this first in a Portable NW
implementation because it's a bit closer to being really protocol independent.
Meanwhile, here's a possible kludge using TCP/IP based terminal servers
and NetWare External Remote bridge software:
NetWare IPX and TCP/IP Ethernet (San Jose)
----------------------------------------------------------
| | | |
mux1 NW Ext. Remote Br. NW ServerA Host/IP router
| 19.2K baud| |
+-----------+ |
(Asynch) |DDN Network
|
NetWare IPX and TCP/IP Ethernet (Provo) |
---------------------------------------------------------------
| | | |
mux2 NW Ext. Remote Br. NW ServerB Host/IP router
||||| |
||||+-----------+
|||| (19.2K baud Asynch lines from mux)
||||
NetWare Access Server
A "Permanent Virtual Circuit" is established between serial ports on mux1
and mux2 via TELNET protocols over TCP/IP, while NetWare Remote Bridge
software uses the PVC to connect the remote LANs. This enables any NetWare
client in San Jose or Provo to use attach to NetWare Server A or B.
In addition, TCP/IP users in San Jose can establish TELNET sessions to mux2
ports attached to the NetWare Access Server in Provo and run NetWare/DOS
applications remotely.
This should all work quite easily, I'll see if I can get someone here to
test. Skip Addison said the current remote bridge async driver may not
support required flow control, but I don't think that all terminal servers
would require it anyway.
