ABSTRACT:
This version of NCONFIG.EXE addresses a problem using the -M option with
the NetWare 2.2 INSTALL.EXE program. The traditional naming convention for
LAN drivers is to use A, B, C, or D as the first letter in the name of the
LAN driver.  If this naming convention was not followed, the previous
version of NCONFIG.EXE (v1.0) would display an error message when
attempting to use INSTALL -M.

          README FILE FOR NCONFIG.EXE V1.1
This readme file accompanies NCONFIG.EXE V1.1 for NetWare v2.2.

This version of NCONFIG.EXE addresses a problem using the -M option with
the v2.2 INSTALL.EXE program. The traditional naming convention for LAN
drivers is to use A, B, C, or D as the first letter in the  name of the LAN
driver.  If this naming convention was not followed, the previous version
of NCONFIG.EXE (V1.0) would display the following message when attempting
to use INSTALL -M:

     "Lan Driver Description file for <NETWORK BOARD> cannot be found. 
Will not show up in OS generation screen."

NCONFIG.EXE V1.1 does not require the LAN driver to have A , B, C, or D
included anywhere in the name.

INSTALLATION:

To use NCONFIG.EXE V1.1 make sure you have a backup copy of NCONFIG.EXE. 
Then replace the old one on the SYSTEM-1 diskette or directory (depending
on whether you use the diskette or hard disk method) with the new
NCONFIG.EXE V1.1.

NCONFIG.EXE will then be used by INSTALL the next time it is run.
