IPX

[Stephen Hope]

Maybe i am missing somthing here,

but if you are running WAN links across a VPN and presumably routers, serial
links and so on, why would going NT server -> Novell server on the LAN
once you get to a main site hit performance?

I would expect some added delay for file open etc, but extra hops across
a LAN should be negligible compared to VPN slowdowns.
