5Installing NetWare Drivers

Installing the NetWare Driver Using INETCFG

To install the NetWare driver:

1Copy the MSM.NLM, ETHERTSM.NLM, and NBI.NLM files from the NWSERVER directory on the EtherCD to the system directory; or use the latest service pack from Novell.

NOTE: Copy the NLM files only if the versions existing on the server are older than the versions supplied on the EtherCD.

The NLM file location is typically in the SYS:SYSTEM directory. You need a NetWare client system to copy the NLM files to the server.
