Oh, I didn't understand what you were after. Trath has given good advice.
Good idea to add config,sys as well.eg
device=himem.sys <--- required for lh of progs
lastdrive=z <-- handy to have
the net cfg should also have entry as per ne2000 for the lan card you are using.
wondering also - why do you want a boot floppy to connect win95 ws to network -
why not just use the win95 networking, either netware or MS client.
Are using this to setup win95 using server based cab files ?

Servers generally install on top of a small DOS partition. You build the partition (5 mb is plenty) and copy SERVER.EXE to it. Run that and away you go.
The *correct* way to build a server is with the server installation diskettes. This will build out the Novell volumes and install all of the appropriate drivers etc.
Not really sure what you're after here.
