its SAL by the way Wink short for Salvador
Oh yeah about the Novell thingie, it works pretty well! As well as unter windows 95 with the old ipx enviroment, if not even better.
You have to configure the novel client as told in the other Thread..here for you again

http://download.novell.com/...fcMIcR-Pw~

1. extract 9sp3xxx.exe ( latest novel client, name differs from language and service package of the client )

2. start setupnw.exe

3. choose custom installation /next

4. click on the only needed novell client ( without any other unneeded stuff ) /next

5. DO NOT install any otehr products / next

6. Choose IPX only / next ( yes working fine )

7. Important! Choose BINDERY NETWARE 3.X /Finish installation

Still M.A.X. will crash very often, but it will run very smooth most of time. In my opinion is not playable with 4 players, because the game crashes very often, especially when someone is attacking.

About the IPX Server Control thingie by Duke. It will take some while but the raw things are done. What we need now is a command database that M.A.X. uses when you play in multiplayer. You need a tool like http://www.wireshark.org/ - a network analyzer to work out all send commands...
and thats it, after that it shouldnt be long for a multiplayer fix.

give it a try, I am not a good coder and network specialist, so every help is very appreciate.
