Does anybody know if this information is correct?

I supposed that Vista will contain no IPX support, or no?

Unless I am missing your point, as far as I can tell it just says "Do not install both Client Service and Novell Client for Windows NT/2000 on the same computer running Windows Vista." It goes on to say what you should do when upgrading to Vista.

Correct... The Windows Client Service for Netware is not compatible with IPX. Assuming you can get the Novell Client installed and running on Windows Vista, you should not have any problems communicating via IPX once you are running the Novell Netware Client. On Windows XP anyway, when you install the Novell Netware Client it removes the Windows Client Service for Netware upon installation.

I didn't know anyone still used Netware... Hasn't Novell ended development of Netware?

Correct... The Windows Client Service for Netware is not compatible with IPX.

In the referenced document is written:
"Windows Vista includes NWLink and Client Service for NetWare to transmit NetWare Core Protocol (NCP) packets to and from NetWare servers."
"Client Service supports some NetWare tools applications. It does not support IP, including NetWare/IP."
If I understand correctly, it means that the Windows Client Service for Netware is not compatible with IP, not with IPX.
But I was not able to find in Vista beta 2 neither IPX protocol nor Client Service for NetWare. Did I missed anything?

Assuming you can get the Novell Client installed and running on Windows Vista, you should not have any problems communicating via IPX once you are running the Novell Netware Client.

AFAIK there is no Novell Netware Client for Vista.

I have not been able to find IPX or Netware services in Vista or any information from Microsoft. I did find this post about when Novell will release Novell Client for Vista.
