Running two network segments on Netware 5 server

[Oldchap]

I have a Netware 5 network running IPX over Token Ring. I would like to add an Ethernet segment on which to hang some printers as it now very difficult/expensive to get Token Ring print servers.

If I add an Ethernet card to the server how do I get the two segments (Token Ring and Ethernet) to talk to each other?

You need to install MPR (Multi Protocol Router) from the Netware 5 Installation CD's, I cant remember which one !!!


Hope this helps

Maybe you have a problem with Source-Routing. I had a lot of trouble with Token Ring Switching. Any device make transparent bridging and any device work with source routing. In a single segment no problem. After switching
the source-routing device was talking with source routing devices in the another ring only.
