the procedure described in the PC-NFS Manual
for installing the Sun Microsystems PC-NFS program
in your PC's hard disk.
2. When asked to identify the type of network interface
card you are using, select "WD8003" from the list.
3. Likewise, when asked for the interrupt level
and the base I/O address select:
Interrupt Level (IRQ) 3
I/O Base Address 300h
4. Copy the following files into the \NFS
directory of your hard disk:
PCNFSIF.SYS
VLNWPD.COM
5. Modify the CONFIG.SYS file to include the following:
DEVICE=C:\ANSI.SYS
DEVICE=C:\NFS\PCNFS.SYS
DEVICE=C:\NFS\SOCKDRV.SYS
DEVICE=C:\NFS\PCNFSIF.SYS
LASTDRIVE=V

NOTE: THE VLNWPD.EXE Driver is used to change WD8003's Driver.
For your system to work properly, make sure that the
C:\NFS\VLNWPD 98 command line is placed before the NFSRUN
command line. Allowable values for the software interrupt
vector range from 96 to 128. The default software
interrupt vector value is 98.

that use the TCP/IP protocol.
