Loading NetWare ODI Drivers 4-11

For complete details on loading the NetWare 4.x server driver for your NetWare version, refer to the readme ﬁles, which are in the \NETWARE\SERVER subdirectory on the EtherDisk diskette. The readme ﬁles are named as shown below:

README.40X

README.41

README.311

README.312

2When you start the server, enter the following commands:

For NetWare 3.11:

load C:LSLENH.NLM [Enter]

load C:3C59X.LAN PORT=XXXX [Enter]

bind ipx to 3C59x net=XXXX [Enter] For NetWare 3.12, 4.0x, or 4.x:

load C:3C59X.LAN PORT=XXXX [Enter] bind ipx to 3C59x net=XXXX [Enter]

where XXXX is the adapter’s port address. (To determine the port address, multiply the slot number by 1000 hex. If the adapter is installed in slot number three, for example, multiply 3 by 1000 hex = 3000 hex.)

If the load sequence above is not followed, the system will not operate correctly.

When running the 3C59X.LAN driver with NetWare 3.11, you must update the MONITOR.NLM ﬁle that accompanied NetWare 3.11 with the MONITOR.NLM ﬁle from Novell. For the latest NLMs, contact Novell.
