Installing Drivers for DEC PATHWORKS v4.1
-----------------------------------------

To install DEC PATHWORKS version 4.1 on a DOS NDIS
workstation, DOS must be installed on the target
workstation C: drive, or you must have a bootable DOS
floppy.  Follow these steps:

1. Insert the PATHWORKS DOS Client Setup diskette version
   4.1 in your floppy drive.

2. Change to that drive and execute the NETSETUP.EXE
   program.

3. Follow the screens to select a Transport Protocol.

4. Insert the appropriate diskettes for the selection 
   you made in step 3.

5. Select your network adapter by typing ETHERNET.
 
6. Select the option (OTHER NDIS) adapters.

7. When prompted for the DRIVE:\PATH\FILENAME for the NDIS 
   driver, type:

   a:\mslanman.dos\drivers\ethernet\fem556n2\fem556n2.dos

8. When prompted for the full DRIVE:\PATH of the PROTOCOL.INI
   fragment, type:

   a:\ mslanman.dos\drivers\ethernet\fem556n2\protocol.ini

9. Follow the rest of the installation screens and the 
   procedure for writing the KEY DISK.

   The NETSETUP program will build the PROTOCOL.INI file
   for you and modify your startup files to use the adapter
   you have selected.

10. Copy FMENABLE.EXE from root directory of Installation
    Disk 2 to the root of the hard drive.  

11. Edit the config.sys file and add the following line 
    immediately below the Card and Socket Services line 
    (if using card and socket services) otherwise add it as 
    the first line:

          DEVICE = C:\FMENABLE.EXE

NOTE: You must add the /N parameter to the line in the 
      STARTNET.BAT file. That starts the network scheduler.

      For example: %BOOT%\DECNET\sch /h /n

=========================================================
