Thanks for the quick answer, Matthew. However...

They DO have turned those off. The ipx negotiating still occurs.

However, they're not getting the 0.0.0.0 problem. I should have made that
more clear in my previous post.

What I'm griping about is the attempted ipx negotiation prior to their
valid login. No other PPP users are getting this, just Win95 PPP users.

And I'd _love_ to hear from anyone else with any ideas about this.
