Novell NetWare V3.12 AND V4.10 Server Driver Installation
=========================================================
1. Things You Need
===============
Before you start with the installation process make sure you have
the following:
a) Hardware Driver Disk
b) Novell NetWare Version 3.12 AND V4.10 System Diskette
2. How To Install O.S. Driver
==========================
a) Insert the Accton EN166X PnP ISA Adapter
Driver Disk into drive A
and check the contents of subdirectory \NETWARE
It should contain the following file :
ACC6X.LAN === Novell NetWare V3.12 Server Driver
b) Copy the contents of the Novell NetWare 386 Version
3.11 System Diskette into your NetWare 386 server's
hard disk. Please refer to your Novell
NetWare 386 Installation Manual for details.
c) Copy the ACC6X.LAN file from the Hardware Driver Disk
into the NetWare server's hard disk.
d) Run SERVER.EXE on the server station. Several NetWare
messages will be shown on screen.
e) At the NetWare prompt (indicated by a colon), run
the driver program. Type the following line if using one adapter:
: LOAD [d:]ACC6X Frame=frame_type <Enter>
or type the following line if more adapters are used:
: LOAD [d:]ACC6X SLOT=board# Frame=frame_type
where board# is 0 to 4, because max number of adapters supported is 4
(You can reference the autoexec.ncf example included on the floppy)
LOAD ACC6X SLOT=0 FRAME=Ethernet_802.3
BIND IPX ACC6X
LOAD ACC6X SLOT=0 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
BIND IPX ACC6X
LOAD ACC6X SLOT=0 FRAME=Ethernet_SNAP
BIND IPX ACC6X
LOAD ACC6X SLOT=0 FRAME=Ethernet_II
BIND IPX ACC6X
f) Bind IPX with the LAN driver. At the Netware server prompt,
type:
:BIND IPX ACC6X <Enter>
After pressing <Enter> the computer prompts you for
the Network Number. For details on how to assign this
number, please consult your NetWare 386 Installation
Manual.
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. The LAN driver installation is completed
when you see the following message on screen:
IPX LAN Protocol bound to NE Mode vx.xxRxx (yymmdd).
Novell NetWare V4.11 Server Driver Installation
===============================================
Requirements
------------
Make sure you have the following:
1. Driver Diskette
Installation Procedure
----------------------
1. Insert the Driver Diskette that comes with the package
into drive A: and check the contents of the
subdirectory \NETWARE. It should have
the following files:
ACC6X.LAN ----> your Novell NetWare v4.x Server Driver
ACC6X.LDI ----> your Novell NetWare v4.x Server Driver
configuration file
2. At the NetWare prompt (indicated by the Server name), run
the INSTALL.NLM program by typing:

and Select it to load the driver and start the binding
process. This will allow you to load and bind all 4 frame
types supported by NetWare.
7. Next time you reboot your NetWare 4.11 server, do so by
following steps 2 to 4 above.
Notes about the Novell v4.x and the v3.1x drivers
--------------------------------------------------
Installation Procedure
----------------------
1. The NetWare v4.x and v3.11 drivers have different
architectures. When using NetWare v4.x, you should
load the NBI.NLM, MSM.NLM and ETHERTSM.NLM modules
before loading the server driver ACC6X.LAN.
2. ACC6X.LAN is your server driver for NetWare v4.x. When
loading ACC6X.LAN, it will check whether or not
these three modules (NBI.NLM ,MSM.NLM and ETHERTSM.NLM) have been
loaded. If not, it will load them automatically.
3. After the ACC6X.LAN is loaded, type the "MODULES" command to
view and confirm that the additional modules, MSM.NLM and
ETHERTSM.NLM are loaded.
4. The default frame type ACC6X.LAN binding for NetWare v4.x
is Ethernet_802.2 and not Ethernet_802.3.
5. If you have any trouble loading NLM modules, Please refer to autoexec.ncf
in each directory.

driver, use the driver off the Accton Support Disk.
7. Once the Netware Client for NT has read the OEMSETUP.INF file on the
Accton Support Disk, the following line should appear in
the dialog box:
Accton EN166X PnP ISA Ethernet Adapter
Select it.
8. After more files are copied from the Accton Support Disk,
a dialog box will appear asking to specify the PORT.
Enter the port address.
9. Follow the remaining instructions for the installation of the NT
requestor.
The installation is complete.
