Section Three
Loading the DOS ODI Driver
| The DOS ODI driver OTCETH.COM for the Trumpcard PC Card is an |
| executable DOS TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program. |
| It must be loaded always after the LSL (Link Support Layer) module and |
| before the IPXODI (IPX Stack Protocol). |
| An example of a possible AUTOEXEC.BAT file allowing the loading of |
| necessary modules to establish a link from a DOS Workstation to a |
| Netware Server is: |
| LSL |
| OTCETH |
| IPXODI |
| NETX or VLM |
Note: | If your Ethernet frame type is NOT 802.2, you must use the NET.CFG |
| file to supply the appropriate frame type. The OTCETH driver will |
| default to 802.2 in accordance with Novell's specifications. |
Note: | Keyword specifications associated with the ODI drivers are explained |
| in Appendix A, Error Messages in Appendix C. |
