NDC ND5300 Plug and Play Ethernet Adapter
NDIS Driver for SUN PC-NFS Installation
=================================================

PRE-INSTALLATION

     You should setup and diagnose the Instant-Link adapter(s) by
     applying NDCONF3 before you install and/or run the NOS or
     network applications.


INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1)   Insert the "NDC Setup diskette" into drive A: and copy the ND5300
     NDIS driver to the destination subdirectory on your PC (the
     recommended Destination Subdirectory is C:\LANMAN).

          A:\> Copy A:\NDIS2\ND5300.DOS C:\LANMAN

2)   Insert the "Installation and Connections" diskette into drive A: or
     B: .

3)   Go to drive A: or B: and type: "INSTALL" and press <Enter>.

4)   Specify the destination drive letter (usually C) and press <Enter>.

5)   Specify "Ethernet" and press <Enter>.

6)   Select the "NDIS" option.

7)   Follow the screen prompts to copy the PCNFS files to your
     destination drive.

8)   When prompted, press <Enter> to configure PCNFS.

9)   Specify the PC name, IP address, server name, and server IP
     address. If you need assistance, refer to the "Configuring
     PC-NFS" section of your Sun PC-NFS Installation Guide.

10)  Follow the screen prompts to complete the installation.

11)  When the installation is complete, select Quit to exit the
     configuration program, defer the boot, and return to DOS.

12)  Using any text editor, add the following line above the
     NFS_NDIS.SYS driver specification in your CONFIG.SYS file:

          device=c:\lanman\ND5300.DOS

     Note: The 'c:' shown in the line above indicates the
     destination drive you selected during the PCNFS installation.

13)  Use any text editor to edit the PROTOCOL.NFS file in the
     \LANMAN subdirectory in your Destination Directory:

     - Replace:

              [YOUR-MAC-MODULE]

     with:

              [ND5300_NIF]

     - Replace:

          drivername = yourmac$

     with:

          drivername = ND5300$

     - remove:

          option1 = value1 etc.

     - Replace:

          bindings = YOUR-MAC-MODULE

     with:

          bindings = ND5300_NIF

     - Locate the file PROTOCOL.NFS in the \LANMAN subdirectory on
     your destination drive and rename it as PROTOCOL.INI. Refer to
     your DOS manual if you need assistance.

     - Add the following NETBIND statement just before the NFS RUN
     statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

          C:\LANMAN\NETBIND
          NFSRUN

     Note: The 'C:' shown in the line above indicates the
     destination drive you selected during the PCNFS installation.

14)  Reboot the computer.

15)  Execute NFSCONF.EXE to configure system (i.e. Mount a virtual
     driver E:). Execute TELNET.EXE to do terminal emulation.


Following are the sample configuration files:

     CONFIG.SYS:

          SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:526
          DOS=HIGH, UMB
          rem ----pcnfs install

          DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.SYS /i:C:\LANMAN
          DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\ND5300.DOS
          DEVICE=C:\LANMAN\NFS-NDIS.SYS
          FILES=50
          BUFFERS=50
          LASTDRIVE=v
          STACKS=9,256

     PROTOCOL.INI at \LANMAN directory:

          [PROTOCOL MANAGER]
               DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

          [ND5300_NIF]
               DRIVERNAME = ND5300$

          [NFS-NDIS]
               DRIVERNAME = NFSLINK1
               BINDING = ND5300_NIF

     AUTOEXEC.BAT:
               ...
          SET TZ=PST8
          SET PATH=C:\;C:\NFS;C:\LANMAN
          SET NFSDRIVE=D
