GENERAL 
INFORMATION:   If you are trying to bridge more than (or around) 50 
               file servers using internal bridging running NetWare 
               that is prior to NetWare v2.15, you will more than 
               likely start to loose your router tables and experience
               problems with workstations not being able to log into
               servers, or workstations not seeing some of the servers,
               etc.  

               The reason is that prior to NetWare v2.15 we used memory
               pool 3 to keep the tables in.  Due to the limitation of 
               the size of that particular memory pool, we were limited 
               to the amount of internal bridging that could be done
               without over filling and loosing part of the routing 
               tables.  Starting with v2.15 we broke the tables up and
               distributed them differently in memory.  You should not 
               have this limitation with NetWare versions from v2.15 on.
