ODI Driver Installation for Netware DOS Client
==============================================

This documentation describes the functions and the defined keywords used in the
ODI drivers rtsodi.com.

KEYWORD DEFINITION FOR NET.CFG
------------------------------

Filename   :  rtsodi.com

Description:  ODI driver for Netware DOS/Windows client

DriverName :  rtsodi

Parameter   Usage
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When using two or more adapters in a single machine, it is necessary to
specifiy which adapter should be used. The following two parameters are
used for this purpose:

 BUSNO NN,   where NN is the PCI bus identifier of the PCI bus which connects
             to the adapter.
 DEVICENO NN, where NN is the specific PCI BIOS device identification number
              of the specified PCI adapter.

      BUSNO 0
      DEVICENO 9                                                              -

or you can use ETHERID to designate adapter by its Node Address

     ETHERID <adapter's node address>

     ETHERID 0040F6F80001
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specify adapter's speed to 10/100 M bps (default is 100 M bps)


       SPEED 100
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRAME       Specify the frame types. (multiple selections)

            The valid values are : Ethernet_802.2
                                   Ethernet_802.3
                                   Ethernet_II
                                   Ethernet_SNAP

Netware DOS Client Installation
-------------------------------

This subdirectory has been properly structured for Netware DOS Client software
installation. Just enter "A:\DOS" for driver disk drive prompt during client
software installation.

In the \DOS directory, there is one sample NET.CFG file for manually
installing your ODI driver. In the file, all parameter lines are marked with
";" except SPEED 100 line. That means the driver will autosense the connection
automatically using the sample NET.CFG file.

The batch file for client startup using ODI loading procedure (not VLM) and
the sample NET.CFG can be configured manually as below:

        LSL
        RTSODI
        IPXODI
        NETX


Netware 3.12/4.0x/4.1 Client
----------------------------

Netware 3.12/4.0x/4.1 use the DOS Requester as a replacement for the shell,
NETX.EXE. The DOS Requester is a set of files loaded into the client
station's memory. The Requester has two components:

     . Manager (VLM.EXE)
     . Virtual Loadable Modules (VLMs)

After client installation, DOS client configuration files are modified as
follows:

* CONFIG.SYS ---- The follwoing command line was included in CONFIG.SYS.

     LASTDRIVE=Z


* AUTOEXEC.BAT -- The following batch command line was included in
                  AUTOEXEC.BAT to load the networking files from \NWCLIENT.

     @CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET

* STARTNET.BAT -- It will load ODI environment and load VLM.EXE. The command
                  include the following:

     @ECHO OFF
     C:
     CD \NWCLIENT
     SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH
     LSL
     RTSODI
     IPXODI
     VLM

* NET.CFG ------- The following example shows the NET.CFG file after the
                  client installation utility has been executed.

     Link Driver RTSODI

        Frame Ethernet_802.2

     Netware DOS Requester

The Netware DOS Requester is the preferred DOS Client connection softwares.
Please refer to Netware 3.12/4.0x/4.1 manuals for more information.
