(PM) Dial-back and other topics

I have a couple of problems that have been plaguing me for a little while
now. I have a 2E running ComOS 3.7.2. I've got a couple of 33.6k USR
modems on it, and I've been trying to get the following to work:

Dial-back with tcp/ip, netbios, and ipx connectivity.

For regular dial-up ppp from a Win95 box, I can get tcp/ip working fine,
as well as netbios (using tcp/ip, not ipx). IPX does not work at all over
this type of connection, even though I have specified a unique IPX network
for the connection.

I do have dial-back working, to an extent. I'm using the Dial-up Server
software in Win95 (in the dial-up networking stuff). The Portmaster will
dial back, connect, and set up the ppp link. At this time, if I have
tcp/ip disabled, IPX will work, and I can log in to my netware server. If
I have tcp/ip enabled, I can use it, but not netbios functionality or IPX.
Is there anyone who has done similar stuff and can give me some pointers?

Feel free to email me if you need any clarifications.
