- SUN....................PC NFS configuration files
-
- This document applies to the EtherExpress(tm) 16, 16TP, 16C, FLASH,
- FLASH TP, FLASHC, MCA, and MCA/TP.
-
- This document (or an updated version) is also available on FaxBACK,
- document #6320.
-
- NOTE: The first part of this document is based on information taken
- from the PCNFS installation manual. The file configurations in
- Step 12 and the NOTES at the end of the document are from Intel
- Customer Support.
-
- There are 2 types of installations available with PCNFS:
-
- ■ Basic installation
- ■ Full installation
-
- A basic installation enables the PC to access remote files and printers.
- It does not install the PCNFS utilities that provide additional functions.
- The full installation does install these utilities. If Windows is
- running, each installation will address that issue. Windows must be
- installed before installing PCNFS.
-
- To install PCNFS follow these steps:
-
- 1. Insert PCNFS Disk 1 into drive A:
-
- 2. Change to drive A and type INSTALL <enter>
-
- 3. Choose the installation type desired using the arrow keys and
- pressing <enter> on your choice.
-
- 4. Enter the path, including the drive letter, where PCNFS is to be
- installed. The default it C:\NFS.
-
- 5. Enter the information concering Windows.
-
- 6. Select the type of network connection that applies to your network.
-
- 7. Select the option: Use a manufacturer's NDIS driver
-
- 8. If the full installation was chosen, the Installation program will
- prompt for Disk 2.
-
- 9. When the installation program finishes copying files from the
- distribution disks, it asks if you want to update the AUTOEXEC.BAT
- and CONFIG.SYS. If these files are not updated, the information is
- contained in AUTOEXEC.NEW and CONFIG.NEW. The Windows PROGRAM.INI
- and SYSTEM.INI can also be updated by the Installation program.
-
- 10. If a full installation was chosen, the NFSCONF configuration program
- must be run next. If basic installation was chosen skip this step
- and move to step 11.
-
- 11. Exit to DOS.
-
- 12. Modify the PROTOCOL.INI, CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT to match the
- following examples:
-
- Please Note: These are only examples. Your configuration may vary.
-
- Some of the parameters MUST BE CAPITALIZED.
-
- PROTOCOL.INI:
- [PROTOCOL MANAGER]
- drivername=PROTMAN$
-
- [EXP16.DOS] <---- Must match the bindings
- ioaddress=0x300
- drivername=EXP16$
-
- [NFS-NDIS]
- drivername=NFSLINK$
- bindings=EXP16.DOS <----- Must match the header
-
- AUTOEXEC.BAT:
- @echo off
- prompt $P$G
- path=C:\NFS
- set nfsdrive=C
- c:\lanman\netbind <---- add this line here
- prt *
- net init
-
- CONFIG.SYS:
- device=c:\dos\setver.exe
- stacks=0,0
- buffers=25
- device=c:\dos\ansi.sys
- files=20
- device=c:\nfs\pcnfs.sys
- device=c:\nfs\sockdrv.sys
- device=c:\lanman\protman.sys
- device=c:\lanman\exp16.dos <---- add this line here
- device=c:\lanman\nfs-ndis.sys
- lastdrive=V
-
-
- NOTE: If this program is being run over a T1 line, we recommend NOT
- having any memory manager loaded at all. The reason for this
- recommendation is that there can be a performance degradation
- for larger files.
-
- NOTE: If there is a problem with warm booting and NETBIND hanging,
- customer reports that the version 2.24 of our NDIS driver
- (on BBS - Update section - NDIS16.EXE) and upgrading to
- PCNFS 4.0 helped this problem.
