 Compatibility List
 ------------------
    - Because this driver  follows  Novell  ODI  Driver Specification
      version 3.31, the NetWare version 4.10 NetWare server must be
      patched to work with this driver. The servers of NetWare version
      4.11 and above do not need to be patched. The patching method is
      described as below:

       1. Copy LOADER.EXE and LSWAP.EXE to the NetWare 4.10 server
          directory.

       2. Execute LSWAP.EXE at MS-DOS prompt from server directory.

          Usage: LSWAP [loaderFilePath [serverFilePath]]
                 Default loaderFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\LOADER.EXE
                 Default serverFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\SERVER.EXE

        PS. Both LSWAP.EXE and LOADER.EXE files provide by Novell.

              >COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\MSM.NLM      C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\ETHERTSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLH5X.LAN    C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY A:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLH5X.LDI    C:\NWSERVER

		      >COPY D:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\NBI.NLM      C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY D:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\MSM.NLM      C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY D:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\ETHERTSM.NLM C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY D:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLH5X.LAN    C:\NWSERVER
              >COPY D:\NETWARE\32BITLAN\DLH5X.LDI    C:\NWSERVER
			   
			  (A: is floppy drive, D: is CD drive)
