NDC Instant-Link Ethernet PCI Adapter
NDIS Driver for Novell Netware Installation
==============================================================
This file contains the installation method for the following
environments:
A. Novell Netware DOS Client.
B. Novell Netware 3.11 Server.
C. Novell Netware 3.12 Server.
D. Novell Netware 4.0 Server.
Note for Novell Netware Server :
---------------------------------
1. Use the (LOAD) and (BIND) commands to load the NetWare ODI
server driver as described below. For more information on
these commands, refer to the Novell NetWare LAN Driver
Installation documentation.
There are two methods for loading the NetWare Server driver:
(1) use the server command line prompt (":") or
(2) edit the (AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.
If you use the server command line, you will need to load
the driver each time the system is booted. If you edit the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file, it will automatically load the driver each
time the system is booted.
2. Driver Loading Parameters
For the definition of the driver loading parameters, refer to
the 'SETTING.TXT' file (in the root directory of ND5200 Setup
disk).
3. Loading Multiple ND5200 PCI Ethernet adapters
If more than one adapter card will be installed in the Novell
Netware Server, the user must specify the Board's SLOT number
for each card. For example, to load two ND5200 PCI Ethernet
Adapters:
For Board 1: load ND5200 slot=16
For Board 2: load ND5200 slot=17

* ------------------------------------------------------------ *
The Card comes with a NDCGO2 program which provide a fast way to
install your PC as a NetWare workstation. It is recommended you run
the NDCGO2 program for the NetWare DOS client installation.
Otherwise, follow the procedure below to complete the installation.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Insert the "ND5200 Setup Diskette" into a floppy drive (A: or B:).
2) Make a directory (usually \NETWARE) on your hard disk (usually
C: drive) to hold the Novell NetWare utilities.
MD C:\NETWARE
3) Copy these files from the "\NOVELL_W" directory of the "ND5200
Setup Diskette" to the "\NETWARE" directory of your hard disk:
LSL.COM
ND5200.COM
IPXODI.COM
NETX.EXE
NET.CFG
STARTNW.BAT
To copy these files, type:
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\LSL.COM C:\NETWARE
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\ND5200.COM C:\NETWARE
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\IPXODI.COM C:\NETWARE
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\NETX.COM C:\NETWARE
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\NET.CFG C:\NETWARE
COPY A:\NOVELL_W\STARTNW.BAT C:\NETWARE
(You may use your versions of these programs from Novell
instead)
4) Check with your network administrator to make sure that the
protocol stack (IPX protocol bound with Ethernet Frame type)
defined in the NET.CFG file matches your network. The default
protocol stack is:
PROTOCOL IPX E0 ETHERNET_802.3
If you are running NetWare 3.12 or 4.0X, you may have to
change the frame type to:
PROTOCOL IPX E0 ETHERNET_802.2
Note: The others NET.CFG parameters, refer to SETTING.TXT file.
(in the root directory of ND5200 Setup Disk.)
5) Make sure the MAM (Media Access Module) is physically
connected to the network. From the "\NETWARE" directory of
your hard disk, you may use the "STARTNW.BAT" batch file to
load the ODI drivers or enter them manually by typing:
LSL
ND5200
IPXODI
NETX
LOGIN
If you are running NetWare 3.12 or 4.0X, you should change the
last line from "NETX" to "VLM". (Note: You may have to install
the VLM files by applying the "NetWare Client for DOS"
diskettes.)

* B. ODI Driver for Novell NetWare 3.11 Server Installation *
* ------------------------------------------------------------ *
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Boot NetWare by executing (SERVER.EXE). Refer to the appropriate
Novell NetWare documentation on loading disk drivers and mounting
volumes for more information.
2) Copy the ODI Server driver (ND5200.LAN) and related files from the
Instant-Link PCI/ND5200 Driver Set diskette to the hard disk directory
where the NetWare 3.11 SYSTEM files are located. The ODI driver and
related files are in the following paths on the Instant-Link
PCI/ND5200 Driver Set diskette:
A:\NOVELL_S\ND5200.LAN
A:\NOVELL_S\3.1X\PATCHMAN.NLM
A:\NOVELL_S\3.1X\LSLENH.NLM
A:\NOVELL_S\3.1X\MSM31X.NLM
A:\NOVELL_S\3.1X\ETHERTSM.NLM
A:\NOVELL_S\3.1X\MONITOR.NLM
3) To load the driver manually, follow the steps listed below. If you
want to load the driver using (AUTOEXEC), go to step 4.
Type the following command at the file server console:
LOAD LSLENH
LOAD ETHERTSM
LOAD ND5200
Bind the driver to the IPX protocol stack by typing:
BIND IPX TO ND5200 NET=xxxx
( Bind to IPX or any other protocol stack;
where e.g., xxxx=1234 )
Then press <Enter>.
The installation of the NetWare Server 3.11 driver is now complete.
4) To load the driver using (AUTOEXEC), you must first edit the
(AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.
* Type "LOAD INSTALL" at the server prompt (":") to access the
Install Utility.
* Open the "SYSTEM OPTIONS" menu to access "EDIT AUTOEXEC".
* Add the following command lines to the (AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.
An example for the Instant-Link PCI/ND5200 Adapter:
LOAD ND5200 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
BIND IPX TO ND5200 NET=xxxx
( Bind to IPX or any other protocol stack;
where e.g., xxxx=1234 )
Four frame type protocols may be loaded at the same time.
To use this option load and bind the other frame type
protocol(s) ( Ethernet_802.3,Ethernet_II,Ethernet_SNAP ) on
boot-up.
