NetWare Link IPX/SPX Clients

You can configure Microsoft® SQL Server™ clients to communicate with instances of SQL Server by using the NW Link IPX/SPX Compatible Transport, the native protocol of Novell NetWare networks.

The Client Network Utility provides two specification methods for creating an NW Link IPX/SPX network protocol configuration:

  • By service name and port number

  • By network address, port number, and network number

Consult your network administrator for this information before setting up the configuration.
