SOFTWARE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR OS/2 NOVELL ODI CLIENT DRIVER
HP J3239A DeskDirect EL-10 ISA Combo Adapter
For NDIS-2 drivers for OS/2 clients, see the NDIS-2 instructions instead,
or instructions for IBM LAN Server, specifically.
(The general NDIS-2 "readme" file is \NDIS2\README.TXT.
For IBM LAN Server, the "readme" file is \IBMLS\IBMOS2.TXT.)
File Description
----------------
Filename Description
------------ ---------------------------------------
LSL.COM This program implements the Link Support Layer for
ODI clients and generally is loaded first upon
booting. The Link Support Layer file enables the
client to communicate over several protocols.
IPXODI.COM This is Novell's protocol stack for ODI clients.
It performs the same functions as IPX.COM, which is
used for DOS clients. However, it is optional and is
loaded after the LAN driver. Other protocols can be
loaded in its place or with it. This is one of the
key features of the ODI environment.
NETX.COM NetWare Network program.
If you use: You need:
-------------------- -----------
Conventional memory NETX.COM
Expanded memory EMSNETX.EXE
(LIM 4.0 EMS compatible)
Extended memory XMSNETX.EXE
(XMS 2.0 compatible)
NETBIOS.EXE The NetBIOS emulation program (INT 5CH interface) allows
you to run NetBIOS application programs based on the
NETBIOS.EXE interface. The running sequence is one of
the following:
a. IPX shell driver:
IPX.COM
NETBIOS.EXE ---> NetBIOS emulation interface
...
b. ODI driver:
LSL.COM
HPEIOD.COM ---> ODI driver for HP J3239A
IPXODI.COM
NETBIOS.EXE
...
RXMONSTK.COM This is the receive monitor utility for monitor-type
applications (such as LAN Analyzer).
If the monitor-type applications you are using seem to
stop receiving network packets when you install a new
LAN driver on the computer, load the RXMONSTK.COM file.
Load the RXMONSTK.COM file after the LSL.COM driver
but before the LAN driver. RXMONSTK.COM operates as a
TSR and requires 2684 bytes of memory. You can load
only one LAN driver when using RXMONSTK.COM.
The running sequence is:
LSL.COM
RXMONSTK.COM
HPEIOD.COM ---> ODI driver for HP J3239A
IPXODI.COM
...
======================
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
======================
PREREQUISITES: You will need the following diskettes:
Support Disk for HP 3239A (in your HP adapter product package)
-- contains \OS2\HPEIOD.SYS, the OS/2 driver for the adapter
Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION SERVICES REQUESTER diskette
Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 1
Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 2
Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 3
2. Make sure that the computer is a 286 or 386 machine that will run
OS/2 or Extended Edition OS/2.
3. Install the OS/2 Requester, referring to Novell's documentation for
NetWare Requester for OS/2 installation.
4. Copy the \OS2\HPEIOD.SYS file from the support disk into the
NETWARE subdirectory on your hard disk.
5. Add or replace the HPEIOD.SYS command line in the CONFIG.SYS file.
Make sure it precedes the IPX.SYS command line. An example:
DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS ; OS/2 Requester supported
DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\DDAEMON.SYS ; OS/2 Requester supported
DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\HPEIOD.SYS ; HP J3239A supported
DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\IPX.SYS ; OS/2 Requester supported
6. Reboot the computer and log onto your network.

INSTALLATION NOTE
-----------------
You can bind several frame types to the IPX protocol to support various
configurations -- in the Link Driver HPEIOD section of the NET.CFG
file.
SAMPLE:
Link Driver HPEIOD
frame Ethernet_802.3
frame Ethernet_802.2
frame Ethernet_II
frame Ethernet_snap
protocol IPX 00 Ethernet_802.3

Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
