Setup Procedures for Novell NetWare DOS Requester ( VLM) :
-----------------------------------------------
      The  installation utility  INSTALL.EXE  is  located on NetWare's
      "Workstation for DOS" disk. Run INSTALL.EXE from the Workstation
      for DOS Disk.

      The NetWare Client Install program screen will appear.  You must
      complete each of the questions.  These options are specific to your
      needs.

      1. Enter the destination directory for the NetWare Client.
         (The default directory is C:\NWCLIENT.)

      2. Gives you the option to automatically update the CONFIG.SYS
         and the AUTOEXEC.BAT files or modify them at a later time manually.

      3. Do you wish to install support for MS Windows ? (Y/N)
         (MS Windows Subdirectory: default C:\WINDOWS)

      4. Asks you to select a network  driver and  provide  configuration
         options.  It uses the  specifications  you select to  create the
         file NET.CFG.  Insert the 10/100 Auto PCI Ethernet Card drivers
         diskette when prompted for the driver diskette and specify the
         driver path

         A:\

      5. Press <Enter> to install


NOTE:
-----
      1. Be sure to add LASTDRIVE=Z to your CONFIG.SYS file for the
         network mappings to work properly.



Parameters
----------

       The following parameters can be used in order to control part of
       the driver's operation.

       These parameters are added to the driver's entry in NET.CFG

       For NetWare standard parameters, please refer to NetWare user's
       manual.


                AUTOSENSE       enables autosensing of media type when driver
                                is loading (Also called Power-Up Autosense) on
                                all types of supported adapter modes


                TP_FULL_DUPLEX  selects twisted pair connection to work in
                                full duplex mode.

                TP              selects twisted pair connection to work in
                                normal mode.


                LINE_SPEED      selects line speed between 10MBps and
                                100MBps on 10/100 Auto PCI Fast Ethernet
                                Adapter.
                                Format: LINE_SPEED <value>
                                Allowed values are: 10,100

NOTE:
-----
   Driver selected connection is a combination of Line_Speed  selection
   and Media type selection(ether TP or TP_FULL_DUPLEX).
