General Installation
--------------------

1  The EtherExpress PRO/100 adapter uses a NDIS 2.0.1 driver to connect
   to a Banyan server. If you have a NDIS client disk prepared, skip to
   step #6.

2  To create an NDIS client disk, run PCCOPY (located on the Z drive of
   the Banyan server).

3  Select PC Configuration Software and/or LAN driver, and then select
   NDIS Ethernet.

4  Choose the appropriate DOS redirector. For example, REDIRALL for all
   versions of DOS.

5  Specify the directory where you want the client software copied to.
   The default is A:\.

6  On the client you're setting up, copy the NDIS client software to a
   directory on the hard drive. Run Banyan's PCCONFIG program. Select
   Network Card Settings and page down to select the NDIS Ethernet
   option. Specify the PROTOCOL.INI Bindings parameter: E100B_NIF.

7  Select Login Environment Settings, and then Select Default
   Communications Driver. Page down to select the NDIS Ethernet option.

8  Save the settings and exit PCCONFIG.

9  Copy the files PROTOCOL.INI and E100B.DOS (located in the NDIS
   subdirectory on the Intel Configuration and Drivers disk to the BAN
   subdirectory (as per the example) or other directory where Banyan
   client files are located.

10 Add the lines to your CONFIG.SYS file as shown in the Sample Files
   section above.

11 Reboot and run BAN to attach to the Banyan server.


Hints and Tips
--------------

1  Error Message with PRO0025E:

   This type of message occurs when the driver attempts to bind to the
   protocol manager. It generally indicates that there's a syntax or
   other error in the PROTOCOL.INI file. Review the file carefully for
   errors. Also, verify parameters entered in PCCONFIG. For additional
   information, reference NDISBAN.DOC which is part of the NDIS Banyan
   client software.

2  Make sure your NDISBAN.COM is dated April 1994 or later. Earlier
   versions may not work properly.

3  Parameters for the PROTOCOL.INI file:

   Drivername: This is the one required parameter. See the Sample
   Configuration Files section at the top of this document for syntax.
