Without sysctl you cannot disable Netbios propagation packet routing. And no machine with enabled Netbios routing passes our 'you must not participate in broadcast storms' test if it has enabled more than one IPX frame on each interface. So you'll get disconnected from our university net.

My user's mind was: if sysctl is needed for ipx, then:
1-st variant - to modify config script in such manner that sysctl turned on automatically (maybe as other needable functions, if they are) if ipx selected.
2-nd variant - to modify it in such manner that you can't select ipx before you select sysctl

You can use IPX without this sysctl in small networks. But in large network sooner or later net admin comes to you with baseball bat.

Patch I sent to you fixes compilation troubles.
