Installation Procedure :
----------------------
Before you start with the installation procedure, make sure that the
adapter is properly installed and configured. Similarly, Make sure
that your NetWare Requester for OS/2 is properly installed.
Please refer to "Novell NetWare Requester for OS/2" documentation for
a detailed Requester and Utilities installation guide.
1. Copy the PNPOS2.SYS file into the NETWARE subdirectory of your
hard disk from the Realtek Driver Diskette A:\NWCLIENT\OS2.
2. Add or replace the PNPOS2.SYS in the CONFIG.SYS file.
3. Edit the NET.CFG file that you copied over. Edit the file per your
requirements (see examples above). If there are two frame types
listed, whichever frame type is listed first, that is the one that
the driver will load. See above for examples.
4. Reboot your system to get service of network.
NOTE:
-----
You can bind several frame types to the IPX protocol to support
various configurations. Include this in the Link Driver PNPOS2
section of the NET.CFG file. A sample is shown below:
Link Driver PNPOS2
frame Ethernet_802.3
frame Ethernet_802.2
frame Ethernet_II
frame Ethernet_snap
