                     CNET PRO200 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapters
                                NDIS2 MAC Driver
                       for SUN PC-NFS Installation Guide
                     ======================================


The driver named DM9PCI contained in the directory \NDIS20\DOS conforms to the
Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) defined by Microsoft/3Com.

Installation Procedure
======================

1. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file to include the following command line, and reboot
   the PC:
             :
             :
    Device=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
             :

2. Insert the PC-NFS Installation diskette into the PC's floppy drive. Type the
   following from DOS and press <Enter> to bring up the PC-NFS installation
   screen:

    INSTALL  <Enter>

3. Follow screen prompts to configure your screen display. For example, press
   <M> to choose mono display, or press <C> to choose color display, or press
   <ESC> to cancel the installation.

4. When the "Install the Basic PC-NFS files" window appears on screen, select
   "Install Full PC-NFS" from the choice list.

5. Specify the target PC-NFS installation directory by typing the appropriate 
   path in the field provided. For example,

    C:\NFS  <Enter>

6. Carefully read and respond to each prompt that appears on screen, indicating
   the suitable selections for your system.

7. When you reach the prompt that reads, "Configure an Ethernet network
   connection," choose "Ethernet" from the choice list. Then press <Enter> to
   confirm your choice.

8. Choose the network adapter you will use. Select "NDIS" from the list shown
   on screen. Then press <Enter> to confirm your choice.

9. Follow screen instructions to complete the process. You will be prompted to
   insert some PC-NFS distribution diskettes. During the process, files from 
   the diskettes will be copied into your hard disk drive.

10. When prompted to update your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files, press "Y."

11. Your system will prompt you when the installation process is complete. It
    will display the following message:

     "PC-NFS installation is complete"

12. The system will create two sub-directories in the destination drive, namely,
     \LANMAN and \NFS.

13. Create the NETWORK.BAT, DRIVES,BAT and HOSTS files. Specify the PC name, IP
    address, server name and server IP address in these files. See the section
    on Sample Configuration Files for examples.

14. Copy the NETWORK.BAT, DRIVES.BAT and HOSTS files into the \NFS directory of
    your server.

15. Copy the DM9PCI.DOS file from the \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET of your
    driver diskette to the newly created subdirectory (\LANMAN) on your
    destination drive.

    Note: The DM9PCI.DOS file is also found in the \NDIS20\DOS directory of
          your Driver Diskette.
          Rename PROTOCOL.NFS file in \LANMAN directory to a new file name
          called PROROCOL.INI.    
        
16. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file using a text editor. Add the following command 
    line before the NFS_NDIS driver specification:

     DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\DM9PCI.DOS

17. Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file in the \LANMAN directory, replacing the
    following:

    a. Replace the section name [your-mac-module] with [DM9PCI].
    b. Replace the command line "drivername = YOURMAC$" with
       "drivername = DM9PCI$".
    c. Replace the command line "bindings = YOUR-MAC-MODULE" with
       "bindings = DM9PCI$".
    d. Assign the media type and line speed as used in sample PROTOCOL.INI file.

18. Reboot your computer. Then start the application you need. For example:
    a. Execute NFSCONF.EXE to configure the system, such as mounting a virtual 
       drive E:.
    b. Execute TELNET.EXE to do terminal emulation.
