Enclosed are updated Netware v2.1 drivers for the Proteon Pronet 10 boards.
 These drivers will work with the standard Pronet 10 boards as well as the
Micro Channel boards.

The PRO10SH.LAN file must be copied to the SHGEN-1 diskette. The
PRO10OS.LAN file must be copied to the AUXGEN and BRGEN-1 diskettes.  The
remaining *.OBJ files need to be copied to the LAN_DRV_002 diskette
replacing the ?PNETDRV.OBJ and PRONETSH.OBJ files.

If you are using the Micro Channel Proteon board you should have received
the documentation for this board when you purchased it. Novell does not
currently have any documentation for the Pronet 10 Micro Channel board.


Proteon Pronet-10 v2.20 shell driver bug (Added 5-10-1988)

When using the Proteon Pronet-10 shell driver version 2.20, an error can
occur with some Pronet-10 adapter boards during initialization.  This error
can occur when there is actually nothing wrong with the network adapter or
the cabling.  The error displayed by the driver is as follows:

     Found ProNET-10 card at address 0300 HEX.
     Digital loopback test successful.
     Failed to find a packet in analog loopback mode.
     Error determining ProNET address of this station.
     Check station network cable for connections.

To work around this bug, simply run the shell again.  As long as the
hardware is OK, the shell will work the second time.  For batch files, it
is all right to run the shell twice.

The bug has been fixed in the workstation shell driver version 2.23.  The
server driver is not affected and remains at version 3.05. (This ARC file
contains that latest drivers for 2.1 and and has been updated to include
this fix.)
