This installation guide describes:
o How to use EZStart to copy the DOS ODI driver from the
SuperDisk to your PC.
o How to setup a SMC Ethernet workstation to communicate with
both Novell NetWare 386 and IBM AS400 networks concurrently.
COPYING THE DRIVER
From the EZStart Driver Installation screen, select 'Copy Files'
to copy all the files used by this driver from the SuperDisk to
the Destination Directory that you specify.
SETUP PROCEDURE
1. Copy the following files to your workstation:
LSL.COM
ODINSUP.COM
IPXODI.COM
NETX.COM
These files may be acquired from Novell Technical Support or
from the Novell section on CompuServe (type GO NOVELL at the
CompuServe prompt, currently the DOSUP7.ZIP download). When
copying these files to your workstation, it does not matter
under which subdirectory you place them. For convenience,
copy all these files to the same directory. \LSP is the
subdirectory that we recommend.
2. Check to see that the IBM LAN Support Program has correctly
installed the following files in the \LSP subdirectory of
your workstation:
NETBIND.EXE
PROTMAN.DOS
DXMEOMOD.SYS
DXMAOMOD.SYS
If they have not been installed, copy them from the LAN Support
Program diskette to your workstation. The DXMEOMOD.SYS and
DXMAOMOD.SYS files should be version 1.3 or higher.
3. Ensure that the following lines are correct in your system
NET.CFG under the Protocol and Link Driver sections:
Protocol ODINSUP
Bind SMC8416
Link Driver SMC8416
Frame Ethernet_802.3
Frame Ethernet_802.2
Frame Ethernet_II
Frame Ethernet_SNAP
Protocol IPX 0 Ethernet_802.3
You need all four frame types for the system to load properly.
The Protocol IPX line is only necessary when the 802.3 frame
type is not the first entry.
4. Using a text editor, open the PROTOCOL.INI file located on your
workstation. Usually, this file is in the \LSP directory.
Make a backup of the current PROTOCOL.INI file and then edit
PROTOCOL.INI to add the following lines:
[PROTMAN_MOD]
DriverName = PROTMAN$
[DXMEO_NIF]
DriverName = DXMEO$
Bindings = SMC8416
5. Using a text editor, edit the CONFIG.SYS file on your
workstation to add the following lines:
device=\lsp\protman.dos
device=\lsp\dxma0mod.sys 001
device=\lsp\dxme0mod.sys
device=\lsp\eimpcs.sys
device=\lsp\ecyddx.sys files=8 drives=6
6. Using a text editor, edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file on your
workstation to add the following lines:
cls
cd\ (add the directory name where SMC8416 resides)
lsl
SMC8416
ipxodi
odinsup
netbind
netx

7. Reboot the workstation.
The workstation displays the F: prompt.
Your workstation can now communicate with both Novell NetWare 386
and AS400 networks.
