- CAUTION: These drivers have received minimal testing and are considered in
- beta form.
-
- These drivers have been enhanced with support for newer PCN2 boards, faster
- machines (25-33 Mhz), microchannel boards, and LAN Support program features.
-
- The server drivers correct problems with packet congestion on a broadband
- network and occasional GPIs. They are also self-configuring and can be
- selected twice in NETGEN.
-
- Problems resulting in incorrect node addresses, conflicts with IPX, lost
- connections, and lockups or network errors under heavy network traffic have
- been corrected in the workstation drivers.
-
- To install this version of the PCN2 file server drivers:
-
- 1) Backup your AUXGEN and LAN_DRV_001 diskettes or subdirectories.
-
- 2) If you are using IBM LAN Support use the ?PCN2L.OBJ drivers; otherwise
- use the ?PCN2.OBJ drivers. Copy the files ?PCNL.OBJ or ?PCN.OBJ onto
- your LAN_DRV_.001 diskette or sudirectory. Copy the file PCN2L.LAN or
- PCN2.LAN onto your AUXGEN diskette or sudirectory.
-
- 3) Run NETGEN and choose "IBM PCN II & Baseband LAN Support Prog
- Compatible v1.15 (900905)" for LAN Support OR choose "IBM PCN II &
- Baseband v1.15 (900905)". Regenerate the operating system as you
- normally would and be sure to replace the old operating system with the
- new NET$OS.EX? files.
-
- To install this version of the PCN2 workstation drivers:
-
- 1) Backup your SHGEN-1 and LAN_DRV_.001 diskettes or subdirectories.
-
- 2) Copy the SPCN2.LAN file to your SHGEN-1 diskette or subdirectory. Copy
- the SPCN2.OBJ file to your LAN_DRV_001 diskette or subdirectory.
-
- 3) Run SHGEN and select "IBM PCN II & Baseband v1.15 (900905)."
