  ********************************************************************
  NOTE:-
         The "minimum packet receive buffers" must be adjusted to 150
          when loading multiple frames or cards support.

          Add the statement below in STARTUP.NCF file;

             SET MINIMUM PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS=150

4. Installing Software:

        Below are guidelines for installing the server driver, RL100NW.LAN,
        in a NetWare 3.11 environment.

        a.  In the NetWare v3.11 directory, e.g. C:\SERVER.311
            Copy all the files from NW3.11 directory of distribution disk to
            the NetWare boot directory in drive C.

                A:> Copy A:\NW3.11\*.* C:\SERVER.311

        b.  From the NetWare boot directory,\SERVER.311, run SERVER to start
            NetWare.
                 e.g. C:\SERVER.311> Server.exe <enter>

        c.  At the NetWare prompt :, run LOAD INSTALL to add the following
            lines to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.

            *Note:- Mount the SYS: volume if it is not mounted automatically.

                : LOAD INSTALL <Enter>

            select option "Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF file"
            then add the following lines,

                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\PATCHMAN
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\RL100NW PORT=nnnn
                BIND IPX RL100NW net=<network cable address>

             press ESC to save and quit INSTALL.

   d. In Netware Server 3.11, the default "PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS" is 10
      while the PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS requirement of RL100NW.LAN is more
      than that. For the system to run properly, the following line must
      be added in STARTUP.NCF file and restart the server.

               "SET MINIMUM PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS = 150"

   e. When the NetWare server comes up again, Rl100TX-PCI will be
      ready for operation.


 Manually configuring the NetWare v3.11 server
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

    At the NetWare prompt :, load the driver for RL100TX-PCI card,

        : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\PATCHMAN   <Enter>
        : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH     <Enter>
        : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X     <Enter>
        : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM   <Enter>
        : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\RL100NW PORT=nnnn   <Enter>
        : BIND IPX Rl100NW net=<network cable address>   <Enter>

    Or load NLM file seperately one at a time  type the following:-
        : LOAD C:\NW3.11\RL100NW PORT=nnnn       <Enter>
        : BIND IPX RL100NW net=<network cable address>   <Enter>

    The Netware 3.11 server is now properly setup.

    The frame type by default is Ethernet_802.3
    Below is an example to change or load additional frame type support.

        : LOAD A:\NW3.11\RL100NW PORT=nnnn FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
