- This text file explains how to install the ODI server driver on this
- diskette into a Netware 3.12 server. Since the Netware installation program
- does not have driver import capability, the starting point for this process
- is assumed to be after the Netware server software is already installed, but
- not running yet. To install this server driver into a Netware 3.12 server,
- either use the INSTALL program on this diskette or manually copy the files
- to the server's hard disk. To manually install the driver, do the following
- steps:
-
- First, copy the 3C59X.LAN server driver file from the \NETWARE\SERVER
- subdirectory on this EtherDisk to the server hard disk.
-
- Next, copy *.NLM files from the \NETWARE\SERVER\3.12 subdirectory to same
- place the server driver was copied. Failure to copy and load these two NLM
- files instead of the NLM files that came with the 3.12 version of Netware
- may result in network failure or server abends.
-
- Now boot the server, enter the installer, and edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file
- to add the following line (assuming the server start directory is C:\SERVER,
- where the LAN drivers and NLM files were copied):
-
- LOAD C:\SERVER\3C59X.LAN PORT=<portnumber>
-
- Where <portnumber> is the hexadecimal base address of the PCI adapter. This
- address can be obtained from the configuration and diagnostic program.
-
- This LAN driver can only be used in a server that's started from DOS due to
- the limited support of the PCI bus by the Netware server.
