This Software Product Description (SPD) covers PATHWORKS for DOS (NetWare Coexistence), Version 1.1, released in January 1992. The product enables personal computers to run Digital's PATHWORKS for DOS software concurrently with Novell's NetWare client software on a single machine using a shared Ethernet or Token Ring interface. It supports two network environments: PATHWORKS via DECnet with NetWare via IPX, or PATHWORKS via TCP/IP with NetWare via IPX. The document outlines installation requirements using Novell's SHGEN/WSGEN utilities, discusses potential limitations and configuration restrictions—particularly regarding NETBIOS usage, network addressing, and Microsoft Windows compatibility—and provides details on hardware requirements and supported EtherWORKS controllers.
