Chapter 5 of the Windows NT Services for NetWare Networks help file (NETWARE.HLP) includes a subtopic titled "Special Considerations for Individual NetWare-Aware Applications." It states the following:

Attachmate Extra for Windows requires IPXINTFC, a terminate- and-stay-resident (TSR) utility. This TSP must be loaded by AUTOEXEC.NT prior to the DOSX TSR being loaded.

For example, suppose Attachmate Extra! for Windows has been loaded in the C:\EXTRAWIN subdirectory. In AUTOEXEC.NT, make sure the following three lines are in the order shown:

lh c:\extrawin\ipxintfc REM Install DPMI support lh winnt\system32\dosx


After you follow the instructions and load the IPXINTFC TSR required by Attachmate for IPX/SPX connectivity and ensure the IPX/SPX Compatible Transport is installed on the computer, an error message indicating that IPX is not loaded appears.

To correct this problem, use Attachmate Extra! for Windows version 4.1 (or later) or Attachmate Extra! for Windows NT version 1.0 (or later). These versions do not require a TSP for IPX connectivity.
