Would anyone care to comment on the advisability (or not) of
attaching a Novell network of PC's to a TCP/IP network of
workstations and mainframes?

Is it safe to use the (TCP/IP) Ethernet cable as the connection
medium for the Novell network?  Or will the Novell protocol
clash with TCP/IP to such an extent that our workstations and
mainframes will all simultaneously emit clouds of smoke and
suddenly become very quiet?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Thank you.
