Connecting to Netware on a PPTPD VPN (PoPToP)

[Roelof JT Jonkman]

Hello,

Just a quick guess, netware uses IPX, and PPTP doesn't funnel IPX? Netware can
be cohearsed into using tcp/ip. by default it probably doesn't. IPX is sort
of an L2/L3 protocol mess, therefore it usually causes trouble.

Not that this is a solution, but now you know what you're looking at.
