Server Driver for NetWare 3.12
Introduction:
-------------
This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare v3.12
server driver for PCI Ethernet adapter.
Location of Driver: \NETWARE\SERVER\312\PCINWSRV.LAN
Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
Before you start the installation process, make sure that
the Novell NetWare 386 v3.12 server is properly installed.
Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your
server.
1. These files can be obtained from this driver disk subdirectory
A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312
PCINWSRV.LAN
MSM.NLM
ETHERTSM.NLM
2. Copy all PCINWSRV.LAN related files from this Driver Diskette
subdirectory A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312 into the NetWare 386 SERVER
hard disk. (If some files exists, rename the existing files.)
3. Run SERVER.EXE from your server. You will see a series of
NetWare messages on screen.
4. When the NetWare 386 prompt appears (indicated by a colon),load
your server driver. Simply type:
: LOAD C:\SERVER.312\PCINWSRV <Enter>
5. Bind IPX to the adapter driver. At the NetWare server prompt
,type:
:BIND IPX TO PCISRV <Enter>
6. After you press <Enter>, the computer prompts you the Network
Number. For details on how to assign this number, please refer
to your NetWare 386 Installation Manual.
7. Add the load and bind statements you require to the server's
AUTOEXEC.NCF file so that the LAN driver will be loaded
automatically once the server starts up.
NOTES:
------
1. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters:
If you have multiple LAN adapters in a single server, each
adapter must have a different network number. You may also
want to name each adapter for ease of management. For example:
LOAD PCINWSRV EtherID=00C026000001 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A
BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
LOAD PCINWSRV EtherID=00C026000002 FRAME=Ethernet_802.3 NAME=LAN_B
BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22
(The keyword, EtherID, is the ethernet ID of a adapter. This
keyword is provided for multiple LAN cards in a single server by
PCINWSRV.LAN driver. If "EtherID" is unknown, you can ignore it and
directly LOAD under the server prompt, then the screen will
display every adapter ethernet address).
2. Installing One LAN adapter with Multiple Frame Types:
When binding multiple frame types to one adapter, enter a LOAD
and BIND statement for each frame type. Each LOAD statement will
use a different network number is required on the bind statement.
You need to supply a name on each load line in order to avoid
being prompted for which board to bind IPX to. If you do not
have the name option in the AUTOEXEC.NCF , it will not execute
completely without user intervention. Example:
LOAD C:\PCINWSRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023
BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111
LOAD C:\PCINWSRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022
BIND IPX TO IEE8022 NET=22222
If any problem occurs during the binding process, the screen will display
the error messages. Please refer to your NetWare 386 manual for
details on these messages.
