Operation

Loading the OS/2 ODI Driver

The OS/2 ODI driver OTCETH.SYS for the Trumpcard is an OS/2 device driver, it must always be loaded after the LSL (Link Support Layer) module and before the IPX (IPX Protocol Stack).

Below is an example of a possible CONFIG.SYS file which allows the loading of necessary modules to establish a link from an OS/2 Workstation to a Netware Server:

	REM --- Netware Requester statements BEGIN ---
	DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS
	RUN=C:\NETWARE\DDAEMON.EXE
	DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\OTCETH.SYS
	DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\IPX.SYS
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\SPX.SYS
	rem RUN=C:\NETWARE\SPDAEMON.EXE
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NMPIPE.SYS
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NPSERVER.SYS
	rem RUN=C:\NETWARE\NPDAEMON.EXE NP_COMPUTERNAME
	DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NWREQ.SYS
	IFS=C:\NETWARE\NWIFS.IFS
	RUN=C:\NETWARE\NWDAEMON.EXE
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NETBIOS.SYS
	rem RUN=C:\NETWARE\NBDAEMON.EXE
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\VIPX.SYS
	rem DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\VSHELL.SYS
	REM --- Netware Requester statements END ---
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 driver are explained in
	Appendix A, Error Messages in Appendix C.
