Version(s): 
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): 
Last Modified: 30-JUL-2001

SYMPTOMS
========

If you try to log on to LAN Manager 2.2, 3COM and Novell on a LAN Manager
workstation using NETBEUI, XNS and IPX respectively, you may be able to log on
to LAN Manager and 3COM but not to Novell.

CAUSE
=====

This is caused by the loading order of the protocols.

RESOLUTION
==========

Rearrange the load order in AUTOEXEC.BAT as follows:

LOAD XNS
LOAD IPX
LOAD NETBEUI

Additional query words: lm2.2 xns ipx netbeui load 2.2 2.20
