Well, I'm going to try and post this again. I've removed all attachments and the config.txt file insertion now. I will try to post the config.txt file separately from this message, so I can get this posted.
We are running NetWare 6.5 SP5 on a Proliant ML350 G3, PSP 7.60a. The Q57 Lan driver has been upgraded to version 9.72. The server was running both IPX and IP, but during a recent 'Best Practices' review, we removed IPX, as we don't use it anymore on the LAN/WAN. We've followed the Best Practices doc on 10+ servers with no problems, so it doesn't follow the changes suggested in the document.
After IPX was unloaded, Timesync won't sync upon server bootup, because it says it's waiting for TCP/IP to be initialized. However, once the server is booted, if you unload and reload timesync, it syncs up fine. I tried pasting the printscreen of the message on the logger screen, but if I do, I can't post this forum message - probably too big. So, it says upon bootup:
