<========================================================> | Ositech Seven of Diamonds Trumpcard | | Ositech Four of Diamonds Trumpcard | | OS/2 Network Drivers | | Version 2.beta | | | | Copyright (c) 1994-1997, Ositech Communications Inc. | <========================================================> This release of the Seven of Diamonds and the Four of Diamonds Trumpcards OS/2 drivers will allow use of the ethernet function with or without PCMCIA support installed. When using OS/2 PCMCIA support, the system can be configured to allow booting the computer without the network card inserted, inserting the Trumpcard later will allow the network functions to be accessed. The Trumpcard can be hot-swapped while the system is running. Contents ======== 1. Driver Package Files 2. Installing the NDIS Driver under Warp 4 Connect 3. Installing the ODI Driver under Warp 4 Connect ========================================================================== 1. Driver Package Files This driver package consists of the following files: OSITECH.SYS Required when using OS/2 PCMCIA support. OTCETH.OS2 NDIS 2.01 network driver. OTCETH.SYS ODI network driver OTCETH.NIF Network Information File for the above NDIS driver. PROTOCOL.INI NDIS protocol.ini stub README.TXT This file. Please note: Before installing the Ositech Four of Diamonds or the Ositech Seven of Diamonds, you should create a directory on the hard drive where all the Ositech files will be placed and then copy all the files from this package to that directory. At the OS/2 Command Prompt type MD TRUMPCRD CD TRUMPCRD COPY A:\*.* C:\TRUMPCRD ========================================================================== 2. Installing the NDIS Driver Under Warp 4 Connect The NDIS 2.01 driver can be installed when initially installing Warp Connect or when running MPTS by selecting other adapters and entering the diskette drive containing the Trumpcard release. If PCMCIA support is installed, you may receive an error on bootup. This should be eliminated after the installation of OSITECH.SYS. This driver needs to be placed in the CONFIG.SYS file as follows: When OS/2 PCMCIA support is installed, it will add the following to the CONFIG.SYS: BASEDEV=PCMCIA.SYS ; OS/2 Card services driver DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VPCMCIA.SYS ; OS/2 Virtual Card Services DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\AUTODRV2.SYS C:\OS2\AUTODRV2.INI ; Generic Modem Enabler BASEDEV=IBM2NEC1.SYS /S0=2 ; OS/2 socket Services driver The following line needs to be added to the CONFIG.SYS file to allow the Trumpcard to function correctly: DEVICE=C:\TRUMPCRD\OSITECH.SYS ; Ositech Card services interface This line should be placed immediately following the line which loads the AUTODRV2.SYS device. Thus the CONFIG.SYS would have the following: BASEDEV=PCMCIA.SYS ; OS/2 Card services driver DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VPCMCIA.SYS ; OS/2 Virtual Card Services DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\AUTODRV2.SYS C:\OS2\AUTODRV2.INI ; Generic Modem Enabler DEVICE=C:\TRUMPCRD\OSITECH.SYS ; Ositech Card services interface BASEDEV=IBM2NEC1.SYS /S0=2 ; OS/2 socket Services driver In addition, for this to work properly, the network address must be specified in the PROTOCOL.INI. MPTS configuration can be used to accomplish this or the PROTOCOL.INI can be directly edited. This is required because the network driver cannot read the address from the Trumpcard when loading as it is not present. This is currently supported only on the NDIS driver or NDIS driver/ODI shim configuration. ========================================================================== 3. Installing the ODI Driver Under Warp 4 Connect In order to install the ODI driver under OS/2 Warp 4, you must manually edit the CONFIG.SYS and add the following line into the CONFIG.SYS: DEVICE=C:\TRUMPCRD\OTCETH.SYS This line is to be placed immediately after the DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS line, as follows: REM --- Netware Requester Statements Begin --- SET NWLANGUAE=ENGLISH DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS DEVICE=C:\TRUMPCRD\OTCETH.SYS This file should also be copied over into the TRUMPCRD directory off of the diskette in order to successfully load the ODI driver under OS/2 Warp 4. On the root directory of the hard drive is a file called NET.CFG. This file can be configured by the OS/2 editor and the parameters set are those that are used by the Ositech ODI driver. User must edit this file to the settings that are known to be free under their operating system. Here is a sample NET.CFG : Link Driver OTCETH FRAME ETHERNET_802.3 INT 10 PORT 340 MEM D000 MEDIA AUTO NETWARE REQUESTER DIRECTORY SERVICES OFF ==========================================================================
