 How to install the Novell RPL server

  1. You must create a boot diskette. The files on this boot diskette,
     for example, are the followings:

        COMMAND  COM
        LSL      COM
        CN650EP   COM
        IPXODI   COM
        NETX     EXE
        AUTOEXEC BAT

     The AUTOEXEC.BAT file must contain these lines :

           SET COMSPEC=F:\LOGIN\COMMAND.COM
           LSL
           CN650EP
           IPXODI
           NETX

     NOTE: The contents of the diskette and AUTOEXEC.BAT file are depended
           on your needs. The above is only an example.

     the server as SUPERVISOR.(or ADMIN)

  3. Change directory to SYS:SYSTEM

  4. With the DOS boot diskette in driver A: execute the DOSGEN utility.
     This creates a DOS boot image file named NET$DOS.SYS.

     NOTE: Make sure the image file is created ok. Some floppy diskette is
           fail to generate the NET$DOS.SYS, please change the diskette
           and try again.

  5. Copy NET$DOS.SYS to the SYS:LOGIN directory.

  6. Copy RBOOT.RPL to the SYS:LOGIN directory. (only for Netware 3.11)

           b. The Netware 3.12, 4.0x, 4.10 have bundled the above two files.

  8. Copy COMMAND.COM to the SYS:LOGIN directory.

  9. Add the RPL function for Netware Server

     :load rpl
