Upgrading IPX LAN Drivers from the Command Line
Prerequisites
Before you load WSUPGRD, ensure that
•The files that are copied to the client workstation reside in the same directory as the WSUPGRD utility (the default is SYS:PUBLIC)
•Each client workstation you want to upgrade files on has a drive mapped to
SYS:PUBLIC
Procedure
1Copy the new files to the SYS:PUBLIC directory.
2Change to the network drive that is mapped to the PUBLIC subdirectory. For example, if you mapped network drive G: to PUBLIC, type
G:<Enter>
3Change to the drive and directory that the client workstation boots from. For example, if the client workstation boots from drive C:, type
C:<Enter>
4Load WSUPGRD and specify the type of LAN driver. For example, you might type
WSUPGRD NE2000 <Enter>
