Banyan Vines Installation Notes
-------------------------------

 DOS must be installed on the
target workstation C: drive, or you must have a bootable
DOS floppy.

NOTE: Although the driver name is FEM556N2.DOS, the
      internal driver name (used in PROTOCOL.INI) is
      FEM556$.

 1.  Use the DOS MD command to create a subdirectory 
     called \VINES.

 2.  Copy the contents of the VINES LAN S/W (DOS) 
     Install diskette into the \VINES subdirectory.

 3.  Copy the contents of the NDIS subdirectory on 
     the VINES LAN S/W (DOS) 2 of 2 diskette into the 
     \VINES subdirectory.

 4.  Copy the PROTOCOL.INI fragment from the
     \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\FEM556N2
     subdirectory on Installation Disk 2 to the 
     \VINES subdirectory.

 5.  Copy FMENABLE.EXE and FEM556N2.DOS from the        
     \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\FEM556N2
     directory of the Installation Disk 2 to the \Vines 
     subdirectory.

 6.  Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file to read as follows:

     [PROTOCOL MANAGER]
      DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

     [VINES_XIF]
      DRIVERNAME = NDISBAN$
      BINDINGS = FEM556

     [FEM556]
      DRIVERNAME = FEM556$
         
 7. Type C:\VINES\FMENABLE and press ENTER.  This will
    report the IRQ which will be used in step 11.
    Write this down.  Type "C:\VINES\FMENABLE /U" and
    press ENTER.  This will unload FMENABLE from memory.

 8.  Run the PCCONFIG.EXE program located in the 
     \VINES subdirectory.

 9.  Select option 1 "Network Card Settings".

10.  Select the "NDIS Ethernet" option.

11. The NDIS workstation screen appears.  Enter the 
     IRQ that you selected for the Lan + MODEM  
     adapter.  Select the IRQ using the Configuration
     and Diagnostic Program.  

12. Press F10 twice to return to the first menu.
    Select option 2, "Login Environment Settings".  
    In the next screen select option 1, "Default 
    Communications Driver".  In the next screen 
    scroll down to NDIS Ethernet and click "Enter".
    Exit PCCONFIG by pressing F10 at each stage to
    save the new configuration.

13. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file and add the following 
    lines, substituting A: for C: for a floppy 
    disk installation.
                                   
    DEVICE = C:\VINES\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\VINES
    DEVICE = C:\VINES\FMENABLE.EXE
    DEVICE = C:\VINES\FEM556N2.DOS

14. Add the following line to the AUTOEXEC.BAT
    file.

        cd \VINES
        BAN
        cd \

BAN loads the NDISBAN drivers and reads the PCCONFIG.DB
file to invoke changes made during the PCCONFIG stage.

=========================================================
SYSTEM.INI information
=======================
 In order for the modem to function correctly 
 in MS Windows, add the following commands to your 
 Window's SYSTEM.INI file under the [386Enh] category:   
 (Make sure they are not already there.)

[386Enh]
     :
     :
COM1Base=3F8
COM1Irq=4
COM2Base=2F8
COM2Irq=3
COM3Base=3E8
COM3Irq=4
COM4Base=2E8
COM4Irq=3
