      C) Install Accton drivers for LANtastic 6.0



A) Install Accton drivers for LANtastic 4.0
   ========================================

   STARTNET.BAT is a typical logging in batch file with ACCTON's driver
   "ACCLAN.COM". This driver is fully compatible  with  NEX000.COM.
   NEX000.COM is offered from ARTISOFT and can be run with all Novell's
   NE2000 compatible cards. ACCLAN.COM not only does that but also
   supports a much higher performance.


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

    @ECHO OFF
    SET LAN_CFG=C:\LANTASTI
    PATH C:\LANTASTI;%PATH%

    REM NEX000	IRQ=3 IOBASE=300 XEROX	----> by ARTISOFT
    ACCLAN  IRQ=3 IOBASE=300 XEROX	----> by Accton

    AILANBIO
    REDIR TANG_STATION LOGINS=2

    NET LPT TIMEOUT 10
    NET POSTBOX


B) Install Accton drivers for LANtastic 5.0
   ========================================

   LANtastic 5.0 can support two different drivers: NDIS driver and
   LANtastic driver

   i) Using LANtastic driver:
   --------------------------

   For LANtastic driver, Accton's support "ACCLAN.COM" driver which
   is fully compatible with NEX000.COM. (NEX000.COM is offered by
   ARTISOFT and can be run with all Novell's NE2000 compatible cards)


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

    @ECHO OFF
    SET LAN_CFG=C:\LANTASTI
    PATH C:\LANTASTI;%PATH%

    REM NEX000	IRQ=3 IOBASE=300 XEROX	----> by ARTISOFT
    ACCLAN  IRQ=3 IOBASE=300 XEROX	----> by Accton

    AILANBIO
    REDIR TANG_STATION LOGINS=2

    NET LPT TIMEOUT 10
    NET POSTBOX


   ii) Using NDIS driver:
   ----------------------
   For NDIS driver, Accton support "ETHNE.DOS" driver for EN165x product
   series. User can use "ETHNE.DOS" driver to replace AEXNDIS.DOS which
   is the NDIS driver offered by ARTISOFT.

   Example  -----  CONFIG.SYS

	DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANTASTI
	DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\ETHNE.DOS	    -------> By Accton


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

	C:\LANTASTI\AI-NDIS BIND_TO=ETHNE_NIF
	C:\LANTASTI\AILANBIO
	C:\LANTASTI\REDIR MachineName


   Example  -----  PROTOCOL.INI

	[PROTMAN]
	   DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$
	   DYNAMIC = YES

	[ETHNE_NIF]
	   DRIVERNAME = ETHNE$

   Comments:
     If you are using PROTMAN.DOS V1.x, you must use the NO_BIND option
     on the AI-NDIS command line in the STARTNET.BAT, and you must run
     NETBIND.EXE V1.x before AILANBIO.EXE.



C) Install Accton drivers for LANtastic 6.0
   ========================================

   LANtastic 6.0 can support 2 different drivers: LANtastic driver and
   NDIS driver

  i) Using LANtastic driver:
  --------------------------

   To install Accton LANtastic driver, user can use LANtastic 6.0
   install program, and select "NE2000 16 bit ISA bus or compatible"
   or "Other LANtastic compatible adapter" item, then change NE2000
   driver "NEX000.COM" to Accton's LANtastic driver "ACCLAN.COM" or
   add "ACCLAN.COM" before AILANBIO in startnet.bat.

   IF user already install LANtastic 6.0 and want to install Accton's
   EN165x adapter, just replace NEX000.COM with Accton's LANtastic
   drive "ACCLAN.COM" in startnet.bat.

   "ACCLAN.COM" is LANtastic driver which supported by Accton
   "NEX000.COM" is LANtastic NE2000 driver which supported by ARTISOFT

   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

    @echo ===== Begin LANtastic configuration =====
    SET LAN_CFG=C:\LANTASTI
    PATH C:\LANTASTI;%PATH%
    SET LAN_DIR=C:\LANTASTI.NET

    REM NEX000 16-BIT IRQ=3 IOBASE=300	----> by ARTISOFT
    ACCLAN 16-BIT IRQ=3 IOBASE=300	----> by Accton
    AILANBIO @STARTNET.CFG
    REDIR THOMAS @STARTNET.CFG

    SERVER C:\LANTASTI.NET @STARTNET.CFG
    NET LOGIN \\THOMAS
    @echo ===== End LANtastic configuration =====



  ii) Using NDIS driver:
  ----------------------

   To install Accton NDIS driver "ETHNE.DOS", user can use LANtastic
   6.0 install program, and select "NDIS support for network adapters"
   then insert Accton's driver diskette, and type path "A:\LANTASTI".
   Install program will search "ETHNE.DOS" and "PROTOCOL.INI" and copy
   these two files to target directory.

   IF user already install LANtastic 6.0 and want to install Accton's
   EN165x adapter, just replace AEXNDIS.DOS with Accton's NDIS driver
   "ETHNE.DOS" at CONFIG.SYS

   "ETHNE.DOS" is NDIS driver which supported by Accton
   "AEXNDIS.DOS" is NDIS driver which supported by ARTISOFT


   Example  -----  CONFIG.SYS

	DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANTASTI
	DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\ETHNE.DOS	    -------> By Accton


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

    @echo ===== Begin LANtastic configuration =====
    SET LAN_CFG=C:\LANTASTI
    PATH C:\LANTASTI;%PATH%
    SET LAN_DIR=C:\LANTASTI.NET

    rem Please obtain the NETBEUI.EXE program from Microsoft
    NETBEUI
    AI-NDIS BIND_TO=AEXNDIS_NIF
    AILANBIO @STARTNET.CFG
    REDIR THOMAS @STARTNET.CFG

    SERVER C:\LANTASTI.NET @STARTNET.CFG
    NET LOGIN \\THOMAS
    @echo ===== End LANtastic configuration =====


   Example  -----  Protocol.ini

    [PROTMAN]
    Priority=NETBEUI
      DriverName = PROTMAN$
      Dynamic = Yes

    [NETBEUI_XIF]
      DriverName = netbeui$
      Sessions = 6
      NCBS = 12
      Bindings = ETHNE_NIF
      LANABASE = 1

    [ETHNE_NIF]
      DriverName = ETHNE$
