You also need the MAC address of the server.

Here is our working option file:

COMMMETHOD                  IPXSPX
IPXSERVERADDRESS         D0320153400000000010
IPXSOCKET                8522

D0320153 = IPX Address the rest is the MAC Adrress

I have installed ADSM on NT4 (v3.1.x) and I am using TCP/IP
for most of my clients.  However, I have some Novel that want
to backup using IPX/SPX and I can't get it to work.  I have one
Novel machine with TCP/IP loaded and it will back up, but when
I changed to IPX it gave me the error:

ANS1036S   Invalid Option 'IPXSERVERADDRESS' found in options file.

I used the dsm.opt.smp file and uncommented the IPX stuff, so that
must be the right command.  Here is my .OPT file:

*  -------------------------------------------------------
*
    COMMMETHOD                 IPXSPX
      IPXSERVERADDRESS          435345ff
      IPXSOCKET                 8522


*  Setting Nodename
*  -------------------------------------------------------


Where 435345ff is my server address.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Ben
