IPX settings

Value:
IPXUseNBSapMethod
Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System
Type:
DWORD
Settings:
0 = Off (Default)
1 = Use alternate search method
Versions:
8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 10.5
Apply at:
Remote

This registry value enables the SAP method of network search instead of using the bindery when making IPX connections.

Value:
IPXUseNonSapMethod
Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System
Type:
DWORD
Settings:
0 = OFF (Default)
1 = Use alternate search method
Versions:
8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 10.5
Apply at:
Remote
This registry value enables the non-SAP method of network searching instead of using the bindery when making IPX connections. Its main use is to redistribute network traffic. The non-SAP method causes the remotes, instead of the hosts, to generate network traffic every minute. This can decrease network traffic where there are many servers and only a few remotes.
------------------------
Value:
QueueSize
Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System
Type:
DWORD
Settings:
50 (hexidecimal)
Versions:
9.0, 9.0, 10.0, 10.5
Apply at:
Remote, Host
This registry value can speed up IPX performance on Windows 9x machines where you cannot run SPX.
NOTE: Using this registry value can negatively impact other protocols you may be running on you machine, making them perform more slowly. Use this value only when absolutely required.
