SUMMARY
In a mixed LAN Manager/NetWare environment, LAN Manager's NDIS drivers use 802 framing for what goes out through the ArcNet card, and Novell NetWare uses ArcNet framing. The framing difference prevents communication, unless you are using a monolithic stack for an ArcNet driver under LAN Manager. Otherwise, you cannot talk to NetWare on ArcNet.

The same condition exists in Windows for Workgroups 3.1.
