Using the WSUPGRD Utility

Prerequisites

Prerequisites

A typical upgrade requires the following files in SYS:PUBLIC:

WSUPGRD.EXE

LSL.COM

IPXODI.COM

Appropriate ODI LAN drivers (for example, NE2000.COM)

Auxiliary files

The auxiliary files are optional but can make upgrading a complex network easier.

• DRVRXLAT.TXT

This file is in SYS:PUBLIC. It contains one line for each ODI LAN driver type in use on the network.

Each line has the hexadecimal hardware identification of the IPX LAN driver, the path to the files, and the name of the corresponding ODI LAN driver.

If no DRVRXLAT.TXT file exists or if no line with the correct hardware identification is found in the DRVRXLAT.TXT file, then WSUPGRD looks in the PUBLIC directory for an ODI LAN driver with the same name as the existing IPX LAN driver.

If it fails to find an ODI driver, no upgrade is performed.

driver_name.LDC

The .LDC files are in the same directory as the ODI LAN drivers of the same name (driver_name.COM).

These files contain lines that are to be copied to the NET.CFG file in addition to any lines the utility creates normally.
