From the Local Area Connection Properties window, click Install, as shown below. Now Select Protocol. Select “NWLink IPX/SPX NetBIOS Compatible Transport Protocol“. And that’s it! The “NWLink IPX/SPX NetBIOS Compatible Transport Protocol” should now appear in the Items window at the bottom of the list, just above Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). 4 Find your IPX 32-bit Protocol for Novell NetWare Client 32 device in the list and press double click on the net device. Click Reinstall driver button. 5 Choose Install from the specific location and click on the Browse button. If your version of Win 7 supports XP mode you can install it (it is a free download) and give it a try. Basically you drop the ipx-wrapper library files into the game folder of the game you want to play (works for red alert too!) and when the game looks for an IPX network the wrapper will convert this to work over your IP-network. Indeed IPX is a missing feature of Windows Vista/7/8. There is no official driver/patch/fix which can solve your problems regarding IPX network playing and since this protocol is important for Starcraft, you won't be able to play using standard Windows features, however, you can use Hamachi which creates a LAN over Internet with IPX function support.

I have a Windows XP 32 bit system, which I used to connect to my Novell Netware 3.1x server, which is a database server.
Now I am planning to migrate from Windows XP to Windows Server 2008 R2 (64 bit), but the issue is that Windows Server 2008 R2 doesn't support the IPXSPX protocol.
Is there any workaround to make IPX protocol work in Windows Server 2008 R2?

The workaround would be to configure the Netware server for TCP/IP and drop IPX/SPX. It's 2013! This will probably involve an upgrade, but that Netware 3.1 server is twenty years old now.

Sure. From this link:
Ipx For Windows 7
Being 32 bit drivers, I'm not sure what problems you'll run into on a natively 64 bit OS, but this is a workaround, so I guess issues are not unexpected.
(Having posted that, you really should do like Mark suggested and let obsolete technology rest in peace.)
