   Server Driver for NetWare 4.0X

   Introduction:
   -------------
   This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare v4.01
   server driver for REALTEK RTL8139 Fast Ethernet adapter.

   Location of Driver:	   \NETWARE\SERVER\40X\RTSSRV.LAN


   Installation Procedure:
   -----------------------
      Before you start with the installation  process,  make sure that
      the Novell NetWare v4.01 server is properly installed.
      Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your
      server.

      1. These files can be obtained from driver disk subdirectory
	 A:\NETWARE\SERVER\40X

         RTSSRV.LAN 
         MSM.NLM
         ETHERTSM.NLM

      2. Copy all RTSSRV.LAN related files from this Driver Diskette  
         subdirectory A:\NETWARE\SERVER\40X 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.401\RTSSRV <Enter>

      5. Bind IPX to the adapter driver. At the NetWare server prompt
         type:

         :BIND IPX TO RTSSRV <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:
         The keyword  "BOARD"  is provided for  multiple LAN adapters in a
         single server by the driver RTSSRV.LAN.  So, add "BOARD" in  LOAD
         commands. For example:

         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A BOARD=1
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B BOARD=2
         BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22

      2. The keyword  "MEDIUM"  is  provided for specifying adapter's speed
         (10M/100M), add MEDIUM in LOAD commands. For example:

         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A BOARD=1 MEDIUM=100FULL
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11

         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A BOARD=1 MEDIUM=100HALF
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11

         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A BOARD=1 MEDIUM=10FULL
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11

         LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A BOARD=1 MEDIUM=10HALF
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11

      3. 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 RTSSRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023
           BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111
           LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022
           BIND IPX TO LAN8022 NET=22222

   If problems occur during the binding process, your  screen will prompt
   you with error  messages.  Please refer to your NetWare 386 manual for
   details on these messages.
