Server Driver for NetWare 4.1
Introduction:
-------------
This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare v4.1
server driver for CNet PowerNIC 650Eplus PNP Ethernet Adapter.
Location of Driver: \NETWARE\SERVER\41\CN650EP.LAN
Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the Novell NetWare v4.10 server is properly installed.
Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your
server.
1. These files can be obtained from CNet driver diskette subdirectory
A:\NETWARE\SERVER\41
MSM3.NLM
ETHERTSM.NLM
CN650EP.LAN
2. Copy the CN650EP.LAN file into the subdirectory of your server.
For example:
> copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\41\CN650EP.LAN C:\NWSERVER
; if C:\NWSERVER is the server subdirectory
3. Copy the follwing NLM files into your server directory and rename
MSM31X.NLM to MSM.NLM.
> copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\41\MSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
> copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\41\ETHERTSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER
4. Run SERVER.EXE on the server.
5. At the NetWare prompt, enter "Load Install" to edit the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
: load install
Select <System Option>
Select <Edit Autoexec.NCF file>
6. Modify the server's AUTOEXEC.NCF as follows:
: load C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM
: load C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
: load C:\NWSERVER\ETHERTSM.NLM
: load C:\NWSERVER\CN650EP.LAN
: bind ipx to CN650EP net=xxxx ;xxxx is the network number (eg. 33)
7. Press <Esc> key when done editing.
Select "Yes" to save.
Select "Exit" to exit installation.
8. Reboot the server system. The driver is now installed.
Sample AUTOEXEC.NCF file
------------------------
#Load the NLM files on Netware 4.1X server
#-------------------------------------------
load c:\nwserver\nbi
load c:\nwserver\msm
load c:\nwserver\ethertsm
#Working with CN650EP driver (one CN650EP card)
#---------------------------------------------------
load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_ii name=e1
load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_802.2 name=e2
load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_802.3 name=e3
bind ipx to e1 net=10
bind ipx to e2 net=20
bind ipx to e3 net=30
NOTES:
------
1. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters:
The keyword "EtherID" is the ethernet address of a adapter. This
keyword is provided for multiple LAN adapters in a single server
by the driver CN650EP.LAN. So, add EtherID in LOAD commands. For
example:
LOAD CN650EP EtherID=0123456789AB FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A
BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
LOAD CN650EP EtherID=0123456789BC FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B
BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22
2. Installing One LAN adapter with Multiple Frame Types:
When binding multiple frame types to one adapter, enter a LOAD
and BIND statement for each frame type. Each LOAD statement will
use a different network number is required on the bind statement.
You need to supply a name on each load line in order to avoid
being prompted for which board to bind IPX to. If you do not
have the name option in the AUTOEXEC.NCF , it will not execute
completely without user intervention. Example:
LOAD CN650EP FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023
BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111
LOAD CN650EP FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022
BIND IPX TO LAN8022 NET=22222
If problems occur during the binding process, your screen will prompt
you with error messages. Please refer to your NetWare 386 manual for
details on these messages.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
