3Com EtherLink III EtherDisk Diskette Release Notes
This version of EtherDisk provides the following enhancements:
Auto Installation Software for a NetWare DOS Client:
NetWare DOS client software can be automatically installed to the
hard disk of a PC in two ways:
1) If "3Install" is configured on a server, the latest client
software will be installed on the client if the system
administrator copies the latest software to the 3Install account.
For instructions on configuring "3Install" account, locate the
readme.txt file on this EtherDisk diskette
(Path: QINSTALL\SERVER\README.TXT).
2) If "3Install" is not available a basic DOS Client (LSL, the DOS
ODI driver, IPXODI, and NetX) will be copied to the hard disk and
placed in the AUTOEXEC.BAT
NetWare 2.2 (NetWare 286):
EtherDisk now ships default as a NetWare 2.2 import disk. NetWare 2.2
drivers are located in the Root directory to allow the NetWare 2.2
import function to work smoothly.
Driver Agents for Transcend EtherLink SmartAgent (formerly LinkWatch):
These driver agents, when used with 3Com's Transcend EtherLink
SmartAgent software, allow network administrators to monitor and
control PC network activity. A driver agent is built into the
3C5x9.COM NetWare client ODI driver. Driver agents for NDIS 2.01
drivers are separately installable files which ship with Transcend
EtherLink SmartAgent product only.
Clarkson Packet Driver (formerly Crynwr) is included on this diskette.
Release Notes:
NDIS 2.01
The EtherLink III adapter driver ships with the Microsoft Windows for
Workgroups (WFW) version 3.1. This driver works with the 3C509 ISA
and 3C579 EISA adapters. However, if you are using WFW with the 3C529
micro channel adapters, you need to use the drivers on this EtherDisk.
To update, install WFW and select the EtherLink III driver. After
installation is complete, execute the "Update NDIS driver" option in
the "NDIS drivers" menu.
3Com, EtherLink, and EtherDisk are registered trademarks and Transcend and
SmartAgent are trademarks of 3Com Corporation.
