Compatibility List
------------------
Because this driver follows Novell ODI Driver Specification
version 3.31, the NetWare version 4.10 NetWare server must be
patched to work with this driver. The servers of NetWare version
4.11 and above do not need to be patched. The patching method is
described as below:
1. Copy LOADER.EXE and LSWAP.EXE to the NetWare 4.10 server
directory.
2. Execute LSWAP.EXE at MS-DOS prompt from server directory.
Usage: LSWAP [loaderFilePath [serverFilePath]]
Default loaderFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\LOADER.EXE
Default serverFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\SERVER.EXE
PS. Both LSWAP.EXE and LOADER.EXE files provide by Novell.

Before installing, make sure the following items have been
completed.
410PTx.EXE (Where "x" is 6 or higher) must be installed on
NetWare v4.10 file servers prior to installing ODI driver.
Without this patch the following message may be displayed
when NBI.NLM loads.
"Warning: This version of NetWare does not support protected mode
BIOS accesses. Without a loader patch some PCI drivers may fail."
Getting Started
---------------
First time installation from the install menu
---------------------------------------------
1. Start the NetWare Server.
> CD \NWSERVER
> SERVER
2. Execute "LOAD INSTALL" after booting up. Type,
: LOAD INSTALL
3. Select "Driver Options", -> "Configure network drivers", and

4. Press <Insert> key to install an unlisted driver.
5. Please insert release driver diskette into floppy disk.
6. Press <F3> to specify a different <PATH>. <PATH> is directory
which include both DLKFET.LAN and DLKFET.LDI
Ex. A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN
7. Select "DLKFET.LAN ....".
Note: Please don't copy the NLM files to system, if disk's
NLM files version older than system.
8. Specify "SLOT", "Media and Line Speed" and "Node Address"
if necessary.
9. Select "Save parameters and load driver" after configure
adapter setting.
10. NetWare server will loading/binding driver automatically.

Modifying an existing NetWare 4.x Server
----------------------------------------
1. Make a sub-directory NLMS.OLD under NWSERVER directory.
Ex. >MD \NWSERVER\NLMs.OLD
2. Save NBI.NLM, MSM.NLM and ETHERTSM.NLM to NLMS.OLD
sub-directory. (v4.10, v4.11 server only)
3. Please insert release driver diskette into floppy disk.
4. Copy all provided NLM and LAN files into your dos directory
which include SERVER.EXE. (v4.10, v4.11 server only)
Ex. >COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\NBI.NLM C:\NWSERVER
>COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\MSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER
>COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\ETHERTSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER
>COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLKFET.LAN C:\NWSERVER
>COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLKFET.LDI C:\NWSERVER
<PATH> here is the directory where support NLMs and
DLKFET.LAN reside.
5. Start the NetWare Server.
> CD \NWSERVER
> SERVER
6. From the Novell Server side, execute "LOAD INSTALL". Type:
:LOAD INSTALL
Select <NCF files options>
Select <Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF file>
7. Add below item into the server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\ETHERTSM.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\DLKFET SLOT=1 FRAME=Ethernet_802.3
NAME=DLKFET_1_E83
BIND IPX DLKFET_1_E83 NET=xxxx
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\DLKFET SLOT=1 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
NAME=DLKFET_1_E82
BIND IPX DLKFET_1_E82 NET=xxxx
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\DLKFET SLOT=1 FRAME=Ethernet_II
NAME=DLKFET_1_EII
BIND IPX DLKFET_1_EII NET=xxxx
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\DLKFET SLOT=1 FRAME=Ethernet_SNAP
NAME=DLKFET_1_ESP
BIND IPX DLKFET_1_ESP NET=xxxx
8. Restart the server again.
