5-6 CHAPTER 5: INSTALLING NETWORK DRIVERS

6Edit your C:CONFIG.SYS ﬁle and include the following statements:

Files= <value>

Buffers= <value>

Novell recommends that <value> be at least 20 for each statement.

If you are using a Compaq Concerto computer, add the following line and replace the X with the letter preceding the letter you designated in the AUTOEXEC.BAT ﬁle:

LastDrive = X

For example, if you speciﬁed the H drive in the AUTOEXEC.BAT ﬁle, then you specify the G drive here to replace the X in the CONFIG.SYS ﬁle.

7Remove the TokenDisk diskette and reboot your computer.

This completes the manual NetWare DOS ODI client driver installation.

Installing the OS/2 Network Driver for NetWare

The TokenDisk diskette includes the Novell NetWare OS/2 ODI driver (\NETWARE\ODI\3C689.SYS). Instructions for installing this driver are provided in the \NETWARE\ODI\OS2REQ.TXT ﬁle.

Installing the NDIS 2.01 Driver

The Network Driver Interface Speciﬁcation (NDIS) was developed by Microsoft and 3Com. This software speciﬁcation is used in network operating systems such as IBM LAN Server or Microsoft LAN Manager to create drivers for network adapters.

The NDIS Driver Installation and Information option on the Network Drivers menu shown in Figure 5-3 provides instructions for installing the NDIS driver.
