			   ODI CLIENT README
			   =================

This odi client driver is written to conform to the Novell ODI specification 
for DOS workstations, Revision 4.0. The driver is NetWare Certified, and the
NetWare Cetification Bulletin numbers are as follows:

	DE203   bulletin L-2458
	DE204   bulletin L-2459
	DE205   bulletin L-2460

This client driver defaults to an 802.2 frame type - the previous version, 
V2.05, defaulted to an 802.3 frame type (this is due to some changes in
Novell-supplied files for odi client development).

V4.01 does not execute diagnostics when it is loaded.  You should run
diagnostics from nicsetup when the board is installed, and any time
you have reason to believe the hardware may be faulty, or periodically.

Given the ODI architecture, the best selection of memory mode for this
driver is 2K mode.  This will result in 63 network buffers.  In a remote 
boot situation, it may be preferable to use 32K or 64K modes (15 and 31
network buffers, respectively).  32K or 64K modes will allow remote boot
operation on power-up and on ctl-alt-delete.  2K mode will allow remote
boot only on power-up - a local boot will occur on ctl-alt-delete.

Before beginning the installation of the driver (particularly if it is the 
first time you are installing the driver) execute the NICSETUP program found 
in the root directory of the EtherWORKS 3 distribution media.  NICSETUP 
allows you to change your board's settings (ex. I/O, memory address, memory 
mode, interrupt).  Note the board settings for use in installation.

There are two very different ways to install your EtherWORKS 3 netware client,
automatically and manually.

AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION (NetWare 3.12 or NetWare 4.X client installs)

    1.  Create client installation diskettes from your server kit.

    2.  Put the first installation diskette into your floppy drive, change 
	the floppy to the system drive, and execute install.

			C:\> A:
			A:\> INSTALL

    3.  Follow the installation instructions, pressing <ENTER> to install 
	the driver for your network board.  Insert your EtherWORKS 3 driver 
	diskette when prompted to do so, indicating the path to be this
	subdirectory.  The installation software will then use ewrk3.ins to 
	create the NET.CFG file.  Choose your module name (DE203, DE204, or 
	DE205) and press <ENTER>.  Use the arrow keys to select a parameter 
	(I/O port, interrupt, frame type, or memory address), press <ENTER>, 
	and select the setting you chose in NICSETUP for this board.  Press 
	<ESCAPE> when all parameters match NICSETUP.  You will be returned 
	to the main installation menu where you press <ENTER> to complete 
	the process - follow the instructions displayed on the screen.

MANUAL INSTALLATION (NetWare 3.11 client install)

    1.  Go to the subdirectory from which you execute the client driver and 
	copy EWRK3.COM, NET.CFG, and README into that directory. 

    2.  Execute the NICSETUP utility found in the root directory of this 
	distribution media.  Note changes made to the default configuration.  
	The default EtherWORKS 3/Turbo configuration settings are as follows:
			Base I/O Address:       300h
			Memory Base Address:    D0000h
			Memory Mode:            2K
			IRQ Value:              5
		
    3.  If necessary, modify the NET.CFG file to reflect the changes made 
	during NICSETUP.  If you are using the EtherWORKS 3/TURBO board in 
	EISA mode (EISA systems only), don't forget to update NET.CFG's port 
	value which is the Base I/O Address value displayed in NICSETUP's 
	Module Status menu (for example, slot 5 is port 5C00h).

USING YOUR NETWARE CLIENT
					
    1.  Load the Novell supplied Link Support Layer ("LSL") from the DOS 
	prompt by entering LSL <ENTER>.

    2.  Load the DOSODI Client driver EWRK3.COM by entering EWRK3 <ENTER> 
	at the DOS prompt.

    3.  Load the Novell provided IPXODI.COM file at the DOS prompt by typing 
	IPXODI <ENTER>

    4.  Load the Novell supplied NetWare shell NETX.COM, or NETX.EXE, or 
	VLM.EXE at the DOS prompt.  At this point, you will receive 
	notification that you are attached to the server.  Please see your 
	network administrator for a user account or log into the "Guest" 
	account.  To log into an account, switch to drive F: at the DOS 
	prompt and enter the login sequence as follows:

			C:\NWCLIENT> F:
			F:\LOGIN> login guest (or user account name)

    5.  To unload the driver, type LOGOUT at the NetWare prompt, switch back 
	to the drive that the driver was loaded from, and enter the following 
	command sequence.

			F:\USERNAME> LOGOUT
				<NetWare logout messages>
			F:\LOGIN> C:
			C:\NWCLIENT> NETX/U
				<Netware unload message>
			C:\NWCLIENT> IPXODI/U
				<NetWare unload message>
			C:\NWCLIENT> EWRK3/U
				<NetWare unload message>
			C:\NWCLIENT> LSL/U
				<NetWare unload message>

  *  If the wrong format is used, the following message would be seen:     *

			     USER NOTES
			     ==========

1) If you are loading the DOSODI driver on an EISA Bus system and you are
   configuring the EWRK3 adapter as an EISA device you must first configure
   the EtherWORKS 3 card for EISA mode. Consult the README file in the \EISA 
   directory of the distribution media for further details. After that has
   been completed you need to ADD the EtherWORKS 3/Turbo to the system using 
   the EISA Configuration Utility supplied with the system. To ADD, DELETE or 
   VIEW EtherWORKS 3/Turbo EISA settings the appropriate (EtherWORKS 3 
   specific) EISA configuration file must be made available to the EISA 
   Configuration Utility. These configuration files, !DE2030.CFG, !DE2040.CFG, 
   and !DE2050.CFG can also be located within the \EISA directory of the
   distribution media.
