ABOUT THIS FILE
This file describes any special considerations with use of IBMTOK.DOS.
NOTE: Please use DXMAID to install IBMTOK.DOS.
____________
MESSAGE FILE
The message file, LT2.MSG must be located in the same directory as
IBMTOK.DOS. If you use DXMAID this will be done automatically for you.

SUPPORTING TWO ADAPTERS WITH IBMTOK.DOS
To support two adapters with IBMTOK.DOS you need to do the following:
o Load two copies of IBMTOK.DOS in CONFIG.SYS.
o Enter the keyword 'ALTERNATE' in the PROTOCOL.INI section for the
alternate adapter.
If you use DXMAID to install remember to do the following steps:
o Specify that you have two adapters and that you have an option diskette.
o Select IBMTOK.DOS for the primary adapter.
o Select IBMTOK.DOS for the alternate adapter.
o Place the cursor on the entry for IBMTOK.DOS for the alternate adapter,
then press F5 to edit parameters.
o Move the cursor to the input field labeled 'Alternate adapter' and type
the word 'yes', then press F4. This will cause the keyword 'ALTERNATE'
to be entered into the PROTOCOL.INI.
o Install the configuration. DXMAID automatically loads two copies of
IBMTOK.DOS in CONFIG.SYS.
