Subject: Moved, renamed, and deleted files
The original directory structure was scattered and unorganized.
Changes are basically to make it look like kernel structure.

+# IPX configuration

+config IPX
+ tristate "The IPX protocol"
+ select LLC
+ ---help---
+ This is support for the Novell networking protocol, IPX, commonly
+ used for local networks of Windows machines. You need it if you
+ want to access Novell NetWare file or print servers using the Linux
+ Novell client ncpfs (available from
+ ) or from
+ within the Linux DOS emulator DOSEMU (read the DOSEMU-HOWTO,
+ available from ). In order
+ to do the former, you'll also have to say Y to "NCP file system
+ support", below.
+
+ IPX is similar in scope to IP, while SPX, which runs on top of IPX,
+ is similar to TCP.
+
+ To turn your Linux box into a fully featured NetWare file server and
+ IPX router, say Y here and fetch either lwared from
+ or
+ mars_nwe from . For more
+ information, read the IPX-HOWTO available from
+ .
+
+ The IPX driver would enlarge your kernel by about 16 KB. To compile
+ this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called ipx.
+ Unless you want to integrate your Linux box with a local Novell
+ network, say N.
+
+config IPX_INTERN
+ bool "IPX: Full internal IPX network"
+ depends on IPX
+ ---help---
+ Every IPX network has an address that identifies it. Sometimes it is
+ useful to give an IPX "network" address to your Linux box as well
+ (for example if your box is acting as a file server for different
+ IPX networks: it will then be accessible from everywhere using the
+ same address). The way this is done is to create a virtual internal
+ "network" inside your box and to assign an IPX address to this
+ network. Say Y here if you want to do this; read the IPX-HOWTO at
+ for details.
+
+ The full internal IPX network enables you to allocate sockets on
+ different virtual nodes of the internal network. This is done by
+ evaluating the field sipx_node of the socket address given to the
+ bind call. So applications should always initialize the node field
+ to 0 when binding a socket on the primary network. In this case the
+ socket is assigned the default node that has been given to the
+ kernel when the internal network was created. By enabling the full
+ internal IPX network the cross-forwarding of packets targeted at
+ 'special' sockets to sockets listening on the primary network is
+ disabled. This might break existing applications, especially RIP/SAP
+ daemons. A RIP/SAP daemon that works well with the full internal net
+ can be found on .
+
+ If you don't know what you are doing, say N.
