7 NetWare Client 32
v1.09
NetWare* Client 32 for Windows* 95 and DOS/Windows 3.1x with Intel's
EtherExpress(TM) PRO/100B PCI adapter
====================================================================
Location of Driver: The 3.3 spec 32 bit LAN driver is included in
the Client 32 release.
Refer to the appropriate section for either the Windows* 95 or DOS/Windows
3.1x Client 32 installation.
General Installation of Client 32 with Windows 95 using Intel's 32 bit LAN
driver
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prerequisite:
1. Windows 95 operating system installed.
2. NetWare Client 32 for Windows 95 archive file and any patch files.
3. Access to the Windows 95 CD or CAB files, since the Client 32
installation will ask for it.
General Instructions
--------------------
1. If the Intel EtherExpress PCI adapter is being installed for the first
time when Client 32 is being added, install the adapter hardware as
described in the manual and go to step 2. If the adapter is already
installed on the Windows 95 system, go to step 3.
2. When Windows 95 is restarting, it may display the message "Windows has
found new hardware and is installing software for it". Select the
option labeled "Do not install a driver (Windows will not prompt you
again)" then click on OK.
3. Run the SETUP.EXE program for Client 32. It is located in the
\ENGLISH subdirectory of the Client 32 software.
4. On the NetWare Client 32 Installation screen, make sure the "Upgrade
NDIS driver to ODI, if available" box is checked if you are replacing
the NDIS driver with the ODI.
5. When the Select Devices screen appears, highlight "Intel" under
Manufacturers and select "Intel EtherExpress (TM) PRO/100B PCI Adapter
(ODI)" under Models. Click OK to install the driver.
6. On the Recommended NetWare Client 32 properties screen, set the
appropriate settings for the version of NetWare you are using.
7. The Client 32 installation program will copy files. It may ask for the
source of the Windows 95 installation files. Click OK and then enter
the correct path to the files.
8. The Client 32 installation will finish, and you must reboot in order
for the changes to become effective.
9. When Windows 95 reboots you may receive a DOS box message, "Command
line parameter Prompt for E100B". Note the supported Slot value and
select OK to continue. If you see a message "E100B.LAN did not remain
resident ....", ignore it.
10.To prevent the Slot message from appearing each time Windows 95 is
rebooted, right click the Network Neighborhood Icon. Click Properties.
Highlight the "Intel EtherExpress(TM) PRO/100B PCI Adapter(ODI)" and
click Properties. Select the Advanced tab. Under Properties
highlight Slot. Under Value, type in the slot value noted in step 9
and click OK twice. You will need to restart Windows 95.
Hints and Tips for Client 32 in Windows 95
------------------------------------------
1. If the Intel EtherExpress PCI adapter driver loads as an "ATI AT-2560
Series PCI/100 Ethernet Adapter (ODI)", then the wrong driver has been
installed. This can be easily corrected as follows:
a) In the INF directory, which is located off the Windows 95
directory, rename the file A2560.INF to A2560.BAK (or some other
name that doesn't end in .INF).
b) Go to Device Manager by right clicking on the Network Neighborhood
Icon. Click Properties. Select the Device Manager tab. Highlight
the "ATI AT-2560 Series PCI/100 Ethernet Adapter (ODI) and select
remove. Next, highlight Novell ODINSUP and select remove. Restart
Windows 95 after both entries have been removed.
2. Message - Module c:\novell\client32\e100b.lan did not remain resident:
Occasionally on restarting Windows 95 after the Client 32
installation, this NetWare Alert message appears. If you click on OK,
another message says that "The hardware configuration conflicts
E100B.LAN-NW-Adapter 0-Board-0". The ODINSUP device did not load
properly (Device Manager doesn't show it under Network Adapters).
Shut down the system and reboot. This action should load ODINSUP
successfully.
3. PRO/10+ PCI adapter driver loads indicating it is a PRO/100B adapter:
If a problem occurs loading the driver, the driver may default to
indicating it is a PRO/100B. This condition will not cause any
problems since these two adapters use the same drivers. The only
consideration to be aware of is if any advanced settings have to be
made for the adapter. Speed is not a valid option for the PRO/10+ PCI,
and it will always operate at 10mbps. The Force Duplex option defaults
to Auto-negotiate which isn't supported on the PRO/10+ PCI. It will
operate in half duplex. If you need Full Duplex, set it specifically
for Full.
General Installation of Client 32 with DOS/Windows 3.1x
-------------------------------------------------------
1. From the Novell NetWare Client 32 software, run INSTALL.EXE.
2. Select the NetWare Client 32 products you want to install from the on
your workstation from the list:
[X] NetWare Client 32 for DOS
[X] NetWare Client 32 for Windows
[ ] NetWare TCP/IP protocol stack
[ ] NetWare IP (TCP/IP Required)
[ ]Desktop SNMP
[ ] HOSTMIB for SNMP (SNMP Required)
[ ] NetWare TSA for SMS
Note - "NetWare Client 32 for DOS" and "NetWare Client 32 for
Windows" are usually selected by default.
3. From the Customize Support for Windows menu, specify if you want to
use multiple country codes or if you want to set the shared Windows
path. The default for both of these is NO.
4. From the Select LAN Driver Type menu, select "32-bit LAN drivers".
5. From the 32-Bit Network Board Drivers menu, select
"Intel EtherExpress(TM) PRO/100B LAN Adapter"
NOTE: If the Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B lAN Adapter doesn't show
up in the Network Board Drivers menu, you are using an older
version of Client 32. You can update Client 32 or download
the driver from the Intel website (support.intel.com).
6. <OPTIONAL> Specify the following settings for the Intel EtherExpress
LAN adapter:
Parameter Default
------------- -------
Speed (100B only) 0 (auto detect)
IOMAPMODE Memory Mapped
Forceduplex 0 (auto negotiate)
Frame Type Ethernet_802.2
Ethernet_802.3
Note: The default settings will work for most installations. If
you use multiple frame types, please see Hints and Tips
section below.
7. From the Installation Configuration Summary, verify the default
settings for Client 32 are correct, or modify as necessary.
Modify AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS [YES]
Client Directory: C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32
Windows Directory: C:\WINDOWS
LAN driver type: 32-bit LAN drivers
LAN driver: Intel EtherExpress(TM) PCI Adapters
8. Novell NetWare will now copy the files to your workstations and modify
the configuration files to match your selected configuration.
Hints and Tips
--------------
1. If you are using multiple frame types, you will get the following
message when you load the driver:
"Do you want to load another frame type for a previously loaded
board? Y/N "
The way to avoid this is to add the slot number to the load line for
the driver in the STARTNET.BAT (by default it is located in the
\NOVELL\CLIENT32 directory). The only way to determine the slot number
Novell is expecting is to put an invalid value on the load line. For
example (and the load line should be all on one line):
LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\E100B.LAN SPEED=0 IOMAPMODE=0
FORCEDUPLEX=0 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 SLOT=e
When you next reboot, you will be prompted with the correct value.
Modify the STARTNET.CFG again, and use that value. If the slot is not
specified correctly, only the first frame type will load.
2. Check for a LASTDRIVE statement in the CONFIG.SYS file. You must have
LASTDRIVE=Z in config.sys when using Client 32.
3. Verify that you have FIRST NETWORK DRIVE = F in the NET.CFG file under
the NetWare DOS Requester section.
NOTE: NET.CFG is position sensitive, so be careful to indent lines
with one space or one tab as shown above in the example.
4. Verify that the EtherExpress adapter passes the diagnostics test by
running SETUP.EXE on the EtherExpress driver disk. If the adapter
fails diagnostics it will not function correctly running Client 32.
5. Using 16-bit ODI driver with Client 32 requires CLIENT32.NLM dated
10/09/96 or later. The driver will not load with older versions.
