Introduction:
=============

  The Fast Ethernet 10M/100M ODI Driver for NetWare 4.x Servers confirm to the
  Novell Open Data-Link Interface (ODI) specification. This document shows you
  how to setup the driver and how to use the enhanced functions by setting the
  custom keywords.

Contents of the Subdirectory:
=============================

    FETNWSRV.LAN        The ODI driver for NetWare 4.x Server.
    FETNWSRV.LDI        The installation information file.
    NW4X.TXT            This file.

Installation:
=============

  Before starting with the installation process, make sure that the adapter
  is properly installed and configured. You can use the diagnostic program
  (A:\SETUP.EXE) in DOS mode to make sure your connection with the network is
  correct.

  Using Server Install utility:
  -----------------------------
    1) On the server console, execute the INSTALL.NLM program:

                LOAD INSTALL <Enter>

    2) Choose "Driver Option/Configure network drivers/Select a driver".

    3) Press the <Ins> key to install the driver which is not on the list.

    4) Press <F3> to specify a different path (A:\NETWARE\SRVRODI.4X) and
       press <Enter>.

    5) The FETNWSRV.LAN should appear on the selection list. Press <Enter> to
       choose it.

    6) You can "Select/Modify driver parameters and protocols", and then "Save
       parameters and load driver".

    7) You can add the LOAD and BIND command lines to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file so
       that the LAN driver will be loaded automatically while the server
       is starting up.


  Loading Driver Manually:
  ------------------------
    1) On the server console, load the driver directly, for example:

          LOAD A:\NETWARE\SRVRODI.4X\FETNWSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2

    2) Bind with IPX:

          BIND IPX FETNWSRV

    3) You can login the server from a workstation,and then copy FETNWSRV.LAN to
       the directory SYS:\SYSTEM on server. Add the LOAD and BIND command lines
       to AUTOEXEC.NCF file so that the lan driver will be loaded automatically
       while the server starting up next time.


  NOTE:
  -----
    Multiple Lan Adapters in a system:
      If you want to install mutiple lan adapters in a server, you have to use
      the keyword, PCISLOT, to let driver locate the right adapter.
      For example:

        LOAD FETNWSRV PCISLOT=10 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_1
        BIND IPX TO Lan_1 NET=2001
        LOAD FETNWSRV PCISLOT=11 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_2
        BIND IPX TO Lan_2 NET=2002



Configuration Parameters:
=========================

    Custom Keywords:
    ----------------
        PCISLOT = hh               This keyword is the PCI slot number of
                                   the adapter you want to drive. If there
                                   are more than one fast ethernet adapters
                                   in your system, you have to use this
                                   keyword to let driver locate the right
                                   adapter. However, you don't have to use
                                   this keyword if there is only one
                                   adapter in your system.

        FULLDUPLEX                 This keyword is used to force full
                                   duplex mode.

        HALFDUPLEX                 This keyword is used to force half
                                   duplex mode.

        SPEED                      This keyword is used to force Line
                                   Speed at 10 or 100 Mbps.

        AUTO                       This keyword is used to force the
                                   chip at Auto-Negotiation mode.
