>From your question, I assume the Novell servers are performing
as routers.  If that is the case, you will need to enable TCP/IP on
the Novell servers and configure to route as necessary.  This involves
loading the TCPIP.NLM with the appropriate parameters and BINDing IP to 
both sides of the router in the server.  Information on TCP/IP configuration
can be found in the Red Book titled (I believe) "TCP/IP for Supervisors".
