Section 1  INSTALLING THE NETWARE 3/4 ODI SERVER DRIVER ON NETWARE SFT III
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can install and use the NetWare 3/4 ODI server driver on NetWare SFT
III 3.11 file servers by loading some operating system patches and driver 
support files in addition to the driver.

To install the NetWare 3/4 ODI server driver on a NetWare SFT III 3.11 
file server, perform the following six steps:

I.   Verify that the network interface card (NIC) is properly
     configured and installed.  Refer to your adapter documentation
     for instructions.

II.  Copy the NetWare 3/4 ODI server driver files to a DOS partition
     of your NetWare server hard disk.

     To copy the files to a DOS partition, enter the following commands:

	COPY A:\NOVELL\SRVODI\DEPCA.LAN C:\
	COPY A:\NOVELL\SRVODI\ETHERTSM.NLM C:\
	COPY A:\NOVELL\SRVODI\3_1X\MSM31X.NLM C:\
	COPY A:\NOVELL\SRVODI\SFT3\LSLENH3.NLM C:\
	COPY A:\NOVELL\SRVODI\SFT3\PM311IO.NLM C:\

     You may substitute C:\ with another DOS partition and subdirectory.

III. Perform substeps IIIA. and IIIB. to configure the NetWare SFT III
     3.11 server to use the ODI server driver.

     A. You can automatically load the server driver by adding the 
	appropriate instructions to the IOSTART.NCF file.  You can also
	issue these commands directly from the IOEngine.
     
	1. While still editing the IOSTART.NCF file, add the following 
	   lines to automatically load and bind the new driver every 
	   time the server is brought up:

				     NOTE
	   The "slot," "frame," and "net" values given below are examples. 
	   The slot number is the physical slot in which the DE422 (in this
	   example) was installed.  The frame type is one of the four
	   supported frame types "ETHERNET_802.2", "ETHERNET_802.3", 
	   "ETHERNET_II", "ETHERNET_SNAP".  The net address is the external 
	   network address.  Refer to the Novell NetWare documentation on 
	   "Bind" for more information.
	   
	   a. Substituting C:\ with the DOS partition and subdirectory
	      used in Step II, enter the following commands:

		 LOAD C:\PM311IO
		 LOAD C:\LSLENH3
		 LOAD C:\DEPCA slot=4 frame=ETHERNET_802.2
		 BIND IPX TO DEPCA net=00000001

				     NOTE
	   Before saving the IOSTART.NCF file, it is important to verify
	   that no older NetWare 3 server drivers are loaded prior to 
	   loading LSLENH3.NLM and/or MSM31X.NLM.  Even though older NetWare 
	   3 server drivers do not require the LSLENH3 patch or MSM31X, 
	   unexpected behavior may result if LSLENH3 or MSM31X are loaded 
	   after the driver.  If using both older NetWare 3 and newer 
	   NetWare 3/4 server drivers, be sure to load LSLENH3.NLM and 
	   MSM31X.NLM separately before loading any drivers.

	   b. Save the file with the changes.  Answer "Yes" to the exit 
	      prompt.

IV.  Shut down the server by entering "DOWN" at the MSEngine and
     then enter "EXIT" from the IOEngine to return to the DOS prompt.

V.   Follow the instructions in your adapter documentation for connecting 
     the controller to the network.

VI.  Restart the server with the ODI server driver.

     Enter the following command at the DOS prompt:

	MSERVER

     The changes made to the IOSTART.NCF file in step III above take effect.

How To Update Drivers Manually

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.
