5 LAN Manager Workstation/Server
v1.05
LAN Manager* 2.2 Workstation/Server installation notes for Intel's
EtherExpress(TM) PRO/10+ PCI LAN Adapter
==================================================================
Location of Driver: \NDIS\MSLANMAN.BAT
MSLANMAN.BAT will create the following directory structure on a local
hard drive:
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\E100B\E100B.DOS (DOS NDIS driver)
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\E100B\PROTOCOL.INI
\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\NIF\E100B.NIF
\MSLANMAN.OS2\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\E100B\E100B.OS2 (OS/2 NDIS driver)
\MSLANMAN.OS2\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\E100B\PROTOCOL.INI
\MSLANMAN.OS2\DRIVERS\NIF\E100B.NIF
Sample Configuration Files
--------------------------
CONFIG.SYS (for DOS) will include these lines:
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\E100B.DOS
CONFIG.SYS (for OS/2) will include these lines:
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN /I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\E100B.OS2
PROTOCOL.INI will contain these lines:
[E100B_NIF]
; PROTOCOL.INI section for Intel EtherExpress PRO/10+ PCI adapter
DRIVERNAME = E100B$
General Installation
--------------------
1 Create the directory structure needed for the LAN Manager installation
by running the batch file MSLANMAN.BAT. It will create the
directories at the root of the specified drive and copy the necessary
files.
2 Run the appropriate Microsoft LAN Manager setup for the computer you
are setting up (DOS, OS/2 or OS/2 Server). When prompted for the LAN
adapter driver, select "Other Driver" (the EtherExpress PRO/10+ PCI
adapter driver isn't included on the LAN Manager disk) and specify the
drive from step 1. Select the EtherExpress PRO/10+ PCI adapter driver
and follow the directions.
3 When completed, reboot your computer in order for changes to take
effect.
Hints and Tips
--------------
1 Parameters for the PROTOCOL.INI file:
DRIVERNAME: (required) If you have a single adapter, use the syntax in
the Sample Configuration file section. If you are installing
multiple adapters, each adapter must have a unique driver name.
Additional instances of the driver would be referenced by
DRIVERNAME=E100Bx$, where "x" would be a unique number 2 through 9.
FORCEDUPLEX: (required if connecting to full duplex hub) This
parameter enables the adapter to work with a full duplex hub.
Options are 1 (for half), 2 (for full). If not specified, the
adapter will operate at half duplex. [Example: FORCEDUPLEX = 2]
SLOT: (required for multiple adapters) This parameter is optional if
only one adapter is present. If it is specified but is incorrect,
a message indicates that the value doesn't match the configuration
but the driver will find the adapter and load anyway.
This parameter becomes required if more than one adapter is present
in either one bus or multiple PCI buses of a system. The value of
this parameter makes it possible for the driver to uniquely
identify which of the adapters is to be controlled by this driver.
The SLOT number is the encoded value of the PCI adapter's device
location. To determine the slot number, load the driver with only
the DRIVERNAME parameter specified. The driver will report all the
slots which have PCI adapter(s) installed. You can determine which
card is in which slot by using SETUP.EXE and matching the Ethernet
addresses of the adapter to the device number specified in View
Configuration. [Example: SLOT=0x1C]
NODE: (optional) This value sets the adapter's Individual Address,
overriding the value read from the adapter EEprom. The address must
consist of 12 hexadecimal digits, enclosed in double quotes. The
value can not be all zeros. The value can not have the Multicast
bit set. So, use only the hexadecimal digits 2, 6, A, or E as the
second digit of the twelve required in the NODE ADDRESS parameter.
Use any other numbers you prefer in all other positions.
[Example: NODE = "02AA00123456"]

Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
