                     3NET_LOG Utility Program Description

  The \NDIS\OS2 directory of the EtherLink III LAN+Modem PC Card EtherDisk 
  contains the NDIS driver for OS/2.  This directory also contains the 
  program 3NET_LOG.EXE which is a support utility for the OS/2 driver.  
  The utility program can be run from the OS/2 command prompt, and will 
  display messages indicating any events that the driver has detected since 
  it was loaded.

  The EtherLink III LAN+Modem PC Card  driver itself can display messages 
  only during initialization when it is first loaded.  The actual start-up 
  of the card, including selection of the I/O Address and Interrupt, occurs 
  after the time when messages can be displayed.  The PC Card environment 
  also adds the possibility of the card being removed and reinserted.  The 
  3net_log program provides a method of discovering the card configuration 
  and any events that the driver has detected.

  If the ELPC3X.OS2 driver is installed in an OS2 2.1 machine using the
  workstation installation program from LanServer 3.x (described in the
  LANSRV.TXT file on this diskette), the 3NET_LOG.EXE program will
  automatically be copied into the IBMCOM directory on the workstation.  
  It is also possible to manually copy the program from the \NDIS\OS2 
  directory on this diskette.

  If the network does not appear to be operating correctly, running the
  3net_log program may lend some insight into possible causes.  If the driver
  for the EtherLink III LAN + Modem PC Card loads without error, but fails to 
  bind to the network protocol, or if everything loads correctly but the 
  workstation can't connect to the network, you may want to run 3net_log to 
  see if any unusual events have been logged.

  To run the log-display program, follow these steps:

  1. Open an OS/2 Command Line window or screen.

  2. At the command line prompt, type:
                 \IBMCOM\3NET_LOG

  3. The log program should display the Interrupt and IOBase that the driver
  is using to access the card.  If the driver is not bound to the protocol, the
  values displayed may not be valid, but in that case they should both display
  as zero.

  4. Press a key to continue.  The program will display any event log entries
  that have been recorded by the driver.  These events consist of the date and
  time when the event occurred, followed by a message describing the event.

  Two event messages are normal and indicate successful load and initialization
  of the driver.  They are:

      Driver successfully loaded.
      Driver Bound to Protocol.

  Other normal messages include card insertion and removal events.

  Following are the most likely unexpected events and their causes:

      Driver could not become Card Services client. No Card Services found.
       or
      Driver could not link to Card Services.
          -- Card Services or Socket Services may not be installed correctly
             on this machine. Card Services is part of OS/2 2.1;
             Socket Services should be provided by the PC vendor.

      Driver could not register with Card Services. Timeout on registration.
          -- The 3C589 was not in a socket when the driver loaded, or the
             driver was not able to obtain needed resources from
             Card Services.

      
      Could not communicate with the 3Com ELPC3 driver.
      Check to ensure the driver is being loaded in CONFIG.SYS.
          -- Usually this is because the driver was never loaded.  The
             suggested action is included in the message.
