Windows 95     Client(16-bit) ncacn_spx            Only way to                                                    connect to server is                                                    by using IPX addresses (see note                                                   (2) below)

NOTES:


 * 1) Windows 95 does not support ncadg_ipx.
 * 2) IPX addresses : The IPX address of the computer must be of the form ~XXXXXXXXYYYYYYYYYYYY. For example, if a computer's network address is 00006112 and its node address is 00AA0060DA28, you should use ~0000611200AA0060DA28.
