These are both old decrepit protocols that need to be sent
to pasture.

The Netware IPX protocol is very old and no one should still be using
it. It is time to move it into staging for a while and eventually
decommision it.

The Netware Core Protocol is a file system that talks to
Netware clients over IPX. Since IPX has been dead for many years
move the file system into staging for eventual interment.
