After much stuffing around i finnaly worked out a way to get almost any
cd roms drive to at least work of a novell 2.2 server
i hope this helps out a few guys
My setup was this:
386 33mhz File server Running Novell 2.2 Non-Dedicated mode
WD-7000 SCSI Host adapter with 3.36 bios roms and drivers
Micropolis 668 M/B SCSI drive set up as scsi 0,0
NEC 85 CDrom scsi 3,0
Panasonic CD rom scsi 4,0
Archive 2150L scsi tape streamer 5,0
MAP ASSIST software from Fresh Technologies
PCBoard 14.5/10 from Clark Development
386 40 no hard disk 4 comports desqview 386 2.4 running 4 pcboard nodes
the hard drive is formated and split into 3 Volumes as Netware 2.2 has a limit
of 255 M/B max per volume
The server is booted from floppy disk the config files i was using is something
like this
Dos 5 system on floppy
*config.sys
device=sstbio.sys wd/sst scsi device driver for host adapter
device=sstcdrom.sys wd/sst generic cd rom driver
*autoexec.bat
prompt $p$g
set comspec=f:\dos5\command.com set command.com path to copy of dos 5 on
hard disk stops programs that need to
load command.com going to floppy
net$os Novell boot programs starts fileserver
share /f:4096 /l:60 Load share.exe this is need to share
files with other users
mscdex /d:$$TCDROM /m:60 /k /l:d /s Microsoft Extensions driver
installs cd rom as dos directory
d: and e: for 2nd cd rom drive
net5 Load network driver protocol
f:\login\login supervisor Log in to network
MAHOST Map Assist program to install cd rom
as a network drive
there are some switches and options
after mahost read the MAP Assist
manual Map Assist is available from
Fresh Technologies i do not encourage
Piracy
*include this in workstations autoexec.bat after net.com is loaded
MACLIENT Map Assist driver for workstations to access shared
CD ROM directory on fileserver
and thats it !!! 2 Different cdroms ,tape drive, scsi hard disk all from
one scsi host adapter one machine and they say it coulnd't be done.
