Can only see the Preferred Server

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone have had a similar problem to mine. I have installed two Netware servers on our network, a 3.12 and a 4.11. I have loaded frame type 802.3 on the 3.12 and 802.2 on the 4.11 ( to keep the
users of the 3.12 server from seeing the 4.11 server. The 3.12 clients have only 802.3 in their net.cfg and not preferred server specified). I have Client32 on my Win95 machine, and when I set the Preferred Server in the Client32 properties, I only see that server. If I change it to
the other server and restart, I can only see that server. I am able to see both if I load 802.3 as a frame type on the 4.11 box, but our 3.12 clients attach to it and can't logon. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

I currently have my client setup as follows: under IPX 32 protocol for Novell Netware Client 32, Advanced IPX, Use only the following frame types: 802.3, 802.2. What puzzles me is that I can see either the server on 802.3 or 802.2 but never at the same time. Its almost as if it shuts down the other frame type after it has found a preferred server. I have gone in to network neighborhood and looked for that server that is on the "other" frame type and cannot see it. ??
