Running the Network Protocol Setup (SETNET) utility

A PC-compatible Macintosh allows you to connect to more than one network at a time, one in the PC environment and one in the Mac OS environment. The Network Protocol Setup (SETNET) utility helps configure your PC networking setup files (such as NET.CFG and PROTOCOL.INI) to distinguish between information sent to the network selected in the Mac OS environment and information sent to the network in the PC environment.

Before running SETNET, you must have installed network driver and protocol software according to the instructions earlier in this appendix.

WARNING You must run SETNET every time you add or remove a network protocol, install or upgrade network software, or change anything in the network control panel. If you do not run SETNET, you will experience network problems.

IMPORTANT If you are using ODI with Windows 95, you may need to manually add the following two lines to your PROTOCOL.INI file before running the SETNET utility.

[NET.CFG]

PATH=C:\NWCLIENT\NET.CFG
