A) Installation procedure for LANtastic 5.0
   ========================================

   LANtastic 5.0 can support following driver: NDIS driver


   Using NDIS driver:
   ----------------------
   For NDIS driver, there is the "MXNICF.DOS" driver for
   the Ethernet adapter.  You can use "MXNICF.DOS" driver to
   replace AEXNDIS.DOS which is the NDIS driver offered by ARTISOFT.

   Example  -----  CONFIG.SYS

        DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANTASTI
        DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\MXNICF.DOS      


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

        C:\LANTASTI\AI-NDIS BIND_TO=MXNICF_NIF
        C:\LANTASTI\AILANBIO
        C:\LANTASTI\REDIR MachineName


   Example  -----  PROTOCOL.INI

        [PROTMAN]
           DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$
           DYNAMIC = YES

        [MXNICF_NIF]
           DRIVERNAME = MXNICF$
	 ;;Range:0-7
         ;;Usage:"Board=nn"
         ;;-------------------------------------
         ;;Board=0
         ;;Option:NWAY,TX10,TX10FD,TX100,TX100FD  	
         ;;FD->Full Duplex
         ;;Usage:"MEDIA_TYPE=XXX"
         ;;-------------------------------------
         ;;MEDIA_TYPE=NWAY

   Remark: If you request 10Mbps Full Duplex mode, please change the 
           statement ;;MEDIA_TYPE=NWAY which inside PROTOCOL.INI as 
           ;;MEDIA_TYPE=TX10FD and delete its semi-colon. Please change 
	   corresponding option for another mode.

   Comments:
     If you are using PROTMAN.DOS V1.x, you must use the NO_BIND
     option on the AI-NDIS command line in the STARTNET.BAT,
     and you need to run NETBIND.EXE V1.x before AILANBIO.EXE.


B) Installation procedure for LANtastic 6.0
   ============================================

   LANtastic 6.0 can support following driver: NDIS driver


  Using NDIS driver:
  ----------------------

   To install PRO120(B) NDIS driver "MXNICF.DOS", you can use the
   LANtastic 6.0 install program, select "NDIS support for
   network adapters", insert the driver diskette, and type
   path "A:\NDIS20\DOS". The Install program will search for
   "MXNICF.DOS" and "PROTOCOL.INI" and copy these two files to the
   target directory.

   If you already installed LANtastic 6.0 and need to install
   the PCI Ethernet Adapter, replace AEXNDIS.DOS with
   the NDIS driver "MXNICF.DOS" at CONFIG.SYS as below.

   "MXNICF.DOS"  is an NDIS driver of the adapter card
   "AEXNDIS.DOS" is an NDIS driver which supported by ARTISOFT


   Example  -----  CONFIG.SYS

        DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANTASTI
        DEVICE=C:\LANTASTI\MXNICF.DOS        


   Example  -----  AUTOEXEC.BAT / STARTNET.BAT

    @echo ===== Begin LANtastic configuration =====
    SET LAN_CFG=C:\LANTASTI
    PATH C:\LANTASTI;%PATH%
    SET LAN_DIR=C:\LANTASTI.NET

    rem Please obtain the NETBEUI.EXE program from Microsoft
    NETBEUI
    AI-NDIS BIND_TO=AEXNDIS_NIF
    AILANBIO @STARTNET.CFG
    REDIR THOMAS @STARTNET.CFG

    SERVER C:\LANTASTI.NET @STARTNET.CFG
    NET LOGIN \\THOMAS
    @echo ===== End LANtastic configuration =====


   Example  -----  PROTOCOL.INI

    [PROTMAN]
    Priority=NETBEUI
      DriverName = PROTMAN$
      Dynamic = Yes

    [NETBEUI_XIF]
      DriverName = netbeui$
      Sessions = 6
      NCBS = 12
      Bindings = MXNICF_NIF
      LANABASE = 1
    
     [MXNICF_NIF]
           DRIVERNAME = MXNICF$
	 ;;Range:0-7
         ;;Usage:"Board=nn"
         ;;-------------------------------------
         ;;Board=0
         ;;Option:NWAY,TX10,TX10FD,TX100,TX100FD  	
         ;;FD->Full Duplex
         ;;Usage:"MEDIA_TYPE=XXX"
         ;;-------------------------------------
         ;;MEDIA_TYPE=NWAY

   Remark: If you request 10Mbps Full Duplex mode, please change the 
           statement ;;MEDIA_TYPE=NWAY which inside PROTOCOL.INI as 
           ;;MEDIA_TYPE=TX10FD and delete its semi-colon. Please change
