I am trying to switch to pure IP on my network. This is working OK for network ‘192.168.1.0’, where my NetWare 6 server (SP5) is located. On the other hand, network ‘192.168.4.0’ is not able to find the server, unless I use IPX. My router is configured for both, IP and IPX.
Any other IP application (ping, tracert, telnet, etc.) is able to use this protocol successfully, including NetWare’s iPrint and Remote Manager, but the Novell Client (ver. 4.9), which indicates me that the problem is not at the routing level.
Is there some particular configuration for the Novell XP Pro Client?
Thanks.

NetWare servers, when working IPX, are advertising themselves using SAP every 60 second. When working in an IP only environment, the SLP services is replacing the SAP advertising mechanism and must be configured so all servers in the network will be well known each other and to all clients. To understand the concept of how SLP services are implemented you should read the article "SLP Design and Implementation Guidelines" which you can find at http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10062474.htm
Of course, modification should be done to the client installed on workstations so you can learn how to configure the client to work in an pure IP environment in the TID located at http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10014466.htm
Good luck
