DEC PATHWORKS for DOS/Windows v4.1
=====================================


To install DEC PATHWORKS version 4.1 on a DOS NDIS
workstation, DOS must be installed on the target
workstation C: drive, or you must have a bootable DOS
floppy.  Follow these steps:

 1. Insert the PATHWORKS DOS Client Setup     
    diskette version 4.1 in your floppy drive.

 2. Change to that drive and execute the 
    NETSETUP.EXE program.

 3. Follow the screens to select a 
    Transport Protocol.

 4. Insert the appropriate diskettes for 
    the selection you made in step 3.

 5. Select your network adapter by typing 
    ETHERNET.
 
 6. Select the option (OTHER NDIS) adapters.

 7. When prompted for the DRIVE:\PATH\FILENAME for the      
    NDIS driver, type:

A:\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EL3c574\EL3C574.DOS

 8. When prompted for the full DRIVE:\PATH of     
    the PROTOCOL.INI fragment, type:

    A:\ MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EL3C574\PROTOCOL.INI

 9. Follow the rest of the installation 
    screens and the procedure for writing 
    the KEY DISK.

The NETSETUP program will build 
the PROTOCOL.INI file for you and 
modify your startup files to use 
the adapter you have selected.

NOTE: 
You must add the /N parameter to the line in the STARTNET.BAT file. 
That starts the network scheduler.

For example:

%BOOT%\DECNET\sch /h /n

%VER 1.000.002
