Procedure to use the board under other NOS that use NDIS2 drivers
*****************************************************************
Full instructions are provided in this readme file above for operation
under Windows for Workgroups (WFW). Other Network Operating Systems
(NOS) also use NDIS2 drivers, but many of them are not able to read
the oemsetup.inf file that WFW uses. In case you are using some
of these NOSs you will need to generate an appropiate protocol.ini
file for the board you are using. You can use the protocol.ini
files found under "\MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\FE1000" as
samples and follow the information provided above on the WFW311 section
to modify it according to your needs. You will need to manually copy
the vsmcdual.386 file to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory in order to
properly operate the dual function board under Windows 3.1X.
