Yes, we've been doing it for a couple years. The only issues we have run
into are with using 2924XL switches. When you are running token ring, the
connectors automatically loopback when they are disconnected so that the
ring is not broken. The 2924XL switches have a bug that causes the port
to freak out when the connector loops back. The only way to fix this is
to reset the switch. You have 2 options - 1. Make sure everyone knows
not to disconnect the IBM connector end of the cable until it has been
disconnected form the switch, or 2. remove/cut the think wire inside of
the connector that causes the loopback. Just make sure you never need to
use the connector in a token ring network again or you will have
problems. Other than that, we've had surprisingly few problems.......
