Hi,

for a project that I am engaged on (the next Samba book-an 800-page
monster) I am in need of some information and clarification.

For example, I have heard funny things about IPX, that it was raw 802.3
etc, without LLC (802.2) etc.

Can anyone confirm.

Also, does anyone have any information on the original IBM PC Network
Program? NetBEUI? etc ... I am seeking to verify some of my views.

Since I need to use Ethereal to demonstrate lots of parts of the SMB
protocol, I guess I better get more of it decoded as well.


Regards
