Hi,

I recently upgraded from .13 to .14 and noticed that IPX was no longer
automatically loading itself.  I do this with a script appended below
(this script hasn't changed in years).  When I run the script I get:

/usr/bin/ipx_configure: socket: Invalid argument
ncpmount: Could not alloc IPX socket. Probably no IPX support in kernel when trying to 
find OMC
          
There is nothing in any of the system logs.


If I manually install the IPX module things work as they used to.  I
don't use this very often, but I'm certain that it used to work in the
2.2.x series.

The relevant part of /usr/src/linux/.config reads:

CONFIG_IPX=m
# CONFIG_IPX_INTERN is not set


Thanks for looking into this

#!/bin/sh

        if [ -e /usr/bin/ipx_interface ]; then

        else
                echo /usr/bin/ipx_interface not found.  Check that ncpfs is inst
alled.
                exit 1
        fi
fi

if [ -e /usr/bin/ncpmount ]; then
        sleep 10
        /usr/bin/ncpmount /mnt
else
        echo /usr/bin/ncpmount not found.  Very strange!
        exit 1
fi
