TITLE: TCP/IP across Access Server 
DOCUMENT #: TB.S.3-144
DATE: October 23, 1992 
PRODUCT: Access Server and LAN WorkPlace for DOS
PRODUCT VERSION: Access Server 1.2   
SUPERSEDES: 3-144 dated June 26, 1991

SYMPTOM: NA 

ISSUE/PROBLEM
It is possible to make a TCP/IP connection to a UNIX host via the Access
Server by using a Novell ODI driver and Novell's LAN Workplace for DOS?  

SOLUTION
This can be done either of two ways; with the "Network Option" or the "RAM
DISK OPTION". 

For both options:
1.  You must insert a second adapter (which must be an Ethernet NIC) in the
Access Server and have install LAN WorkPlace for DOS.  One NIC will be used
by IPX.COM for the Access Server software the other (which must be
Ethernet) will be used by TCP/IP.  

2.  Add to the Access Server's AUTOEXEC.BAT:
              LSL
              NE1000 (NE1000 is illustrative only)
              TCPIP
              TELAPI
              CD C:\ACCESS
              NASKEY NASAUTO 

IMPORTANT: SET enviroment variables for USER and XLN path.  See the LAN
Workplace for DOS Administration Guide for details.

All persons running LAN Workplace for DOS on the Access Server will have
the same IP address.

To login to a UNIX host the user must have the LAN WorkPlace for DOS
installed on the server with a mapping to the XLN\bin40 subdirectory. 
XLN\BIN40 should contain the TNVT220 application which opens telnet session
using VT220 terminal emulation.

NETWORK OPTION
1.  Copy to the boot drive the following files:
   NET.CFG (Refer to the DOS ODI reference materials for proper
       configuration)
   The ODI driver for the Ethernet NIC 
       (check DOSUPn.ZIP in NetWire Library 5 for the latest ODI drivers)  
   MLID driver
   LSL.COM
   TCPIP.EXE (from LWP for DOS)
   TELAPI.EXE (from LWP for DOS)
   NE1000.COM (Use the proper driver, NE1000 is illustrative only.)

2.  Be careful to have the RAM address, if any, used by the Ethernet NIC is
excluded in
CONFIG.SYS.

3.  Boot the Access Server.

The Access Server will then be prepared to communicate using TCP/IP and
IPX.

RAM DISK OPTION
1.  Copy to Access Server's boot drive the following files:
       NET.CFG       (see sample below)
       LSL.COM
       TCPIP.EXE
       TELAPI.EXE
       NE1000.COM (Use the proper driver.  NE1000 is illustrative only.)
       TNVT220.EXE
       KBDDATA
       HOSTS
       RESOLV.CFG
       EXTMAP
       PCTOHOST.MAP
       HOSTTOPC.MAP
       T4_DEF.PAR
       XT4_DEF.PAR

2.  Modify NASAUTO.BAT by adding the following lines:
       MD %2:\XLN
       MD %2:\XLN\BIN40
       MD %2:\XLN\TCP
       MD %2:\XLN\HSTACC
       COPY \TNVT220.EXE %2:\XLN\BIN40
       COPY \KBDDATA %2:\XLN\BIN40
       COPY \HOSTS %2:\XLN\TCP
       COPY \RESOLV.CFG %2:\XLN\TCP
       COPY \EXTMAP.BIN %2:\XLN\HSTACC
       COPY \PCTPHOST.MAP %2:\XLN\HSTACC
       COPY \HOSTTOPC.MAP %2:\XLN\HSTACC
       COPY T4_DEF.PAR %2:\XLN\HSTACC
       COPY XT4_DEF.PAR %2:\XLN\HSTACC
3.  Increase second RAMDRIVE by 2 in CONFIG.SYS

4.  Boot the Access Server.
