 INSTALLATION GUIDE 

 Below are guidelines for installing the server driver, RLPNPNW3.LAN,
 in a NetWare 3.11 environment.

     1. Install Novell NetWare v3.11 operating system into your
        server hard disk.

     2. Change to C:\SERVER.311 directory. Assumed this is your NetWare
        boot directory.

         C:\> CD \SERVER.311 <Enter>
         C:\SERVER.311>

        Insert RL2000A-PNP distribution disk in drive A and type,

         C:\SERVER.311> Copy A:\NW3.11\*.* C:\SERVER.311 <Enter>

     3. Run SERVER.EXE on the NetWare v3.11 server.

         C:\SERVER.311> SERVER <Enter>

     4. At the NetWare 386 prompt, type:
             : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\PATCHMAN   <Enter>
             : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH     <Enter>
             : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X     <Enter>
             : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM   <Enter>
             : LOAD C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPNW3   <Enter>

     7. Bind IPX to the server driver by typing:

             : BIND IPX RLPNPNW3  NET=number <Enter>


        The Netware 3.11 server is now properly setup.

                ------------------------------------------


Configure NetWare v3.11 to automatically run the RLPNPNW3.LAN driver

  The server LAN driver can configured to load automatically when Netware
 starts up. Follow the steps below to do configure it.

  a. Insert RL2000A-PNP distribution disk in drive A and type,

          C:\SERVER.311> Copy A:\NW3.11\*.* C:\SERVER.311 <Enter>

  b. Run SERVER.EXE on the NetWare v3.11 server.

                : LOAD INSTALL <Enter>

       Select "System Option" and "Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF file".
       Add these lines and save.

                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\PATCHMAN
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM
                LOAD C:\SERVER.311\RLPANW3
                BIND IPX RLPNPNW3 NET=number


  When Netware 3.11 server restarts the LAN driver will automatically loads.

                    -------------------------------------



 Installing Specification 3.3 LAN driver on NetWare v3.11 (Without SFT III)
 

 Below are guidelines for installing the server driver, RLPNPA.LAN,
 in a NetWare 3.11 environment.

  Ŀ
                                                                            
                      ***  IMPORTANT INFORMATION  ***                       
                                                                            
   1)  If you use this new specification 3.3 LAN driver and you should not  
       use the NetWare 3.11 bundled MONITOR.NLM, your server could abend    
       when viewing LAN statistics.                                         
       Use the MONITOR.NLM included in this disk instead.                   
       Rename or copy the original MONITOR.NLM to a save place first.       
       Then copy from the distribution disk the MONITOR.NLM file to         
       SYS:SYSTEM directory.                                                
                                                                            
   2)  Also note that when loading this new LAN driver, a warning message   
       below will appear,                                                   
                                                                            
     " Warning: NetWare v3.11 does not support protected mode BIOS accesses.
                This may cause newer PCI driver to fail"                    
                                                                            
     Just ignore the message. RLPNPA.LAN driver does not use protected mode 
     BIOS access and runs properly in NetWare v3.11

 Installation Instructions:
 ==========================
 1.   Rename the old .LAN, MONITOR.NLM, PATCHMAN.NLM files.

 2.   Copy RLPNPA.LAN and all .NLM files from distribution disk,
        A:\NW3.12\Spec3.3 into C:\SERVER.311 directory.
      From the distribution disk copy also the following file:-
        A:\NW3.11\SFTiii\A3112.NLM
   
 3.   Bring up NetWare v3.11 server. At the file server console, type,
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\A3112
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\NBI31X.NLM
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X.NLM
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM.NLM
                     : Load C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPA.LAN
                     : BIND IPX RLPNPA net= xxxxxxxx

      where xxxxxxxx can be 1 to 8 digit in hexadecimal and must be
      a unique number.

   
 Update AUTOEXEC.NCF file to auto-load these file when the server starts.
 ========================================================================
 1.  Login in as Supervisor user and change the SYSTEM directory.

 2.  Use any text editor like Notepad or DOS EDIT open the file
     AUTOEXEC.NCF. Insert the following text after the line
     "IPX internet address= nnnnnnnn". Then save and exit.
      e.g.
              IPX internet address = nnnnnnnn
              Load C:\SERVER.311\LSLENH         <-- add line
              Load C:\SERVER.311\A3112          <-- add line
              Load C:\SERVER.311\NBI31X.NLM     <-- add line
              Load C:\SERVER.311\MSM31X.NLM     <-- add line
              Load C:\SERVER.311\ETHERTSM.NLM   <-- add line
              Load C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPA.LAN      <-- add line
              Bind IPX RLPNPA  net=xxxxxxxx      <-- add line


 Note:- If you have more than one RL2000A PnP adapter installed,
        At the DOS prompt, run RLASET record the I/O addresses and IRQ
        numbers for each card.
        Edit C:\SERVER.311\RL311.NCF file and change the line;

                Load C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPA
        to
                Load C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPA Port=nnn1 Name=RL1
                Load C:\SERVER.311\RLPNPA Port=nnn2 Name=RL2
                Bind IPX RL1 net=xxxxxxx1
                Bind IPx RL2 net=xxxxxxx2

        save and exit the text editor.

        where, xxxxxx1 and xxxxxx2 must be unique hexadecimal number.



 Installing on NetWare SFT III 3.11
 
 1.   Rename the old xxx.LAN, xxxTSM.NLM, and MSMxxx.NLM files.

 2.   Copy the new xxx.LAN, xxxTSM.NLM, and MSMxxx.NLM files into the
      directory of each server where files loaded from IOSTART.NCF are
      loaded.  These files should also be put into the SYSTEM directory of
      the SYS: volume for easy server maintenance.

      Do not use LSLENH.NLM, PATCHMAN.NLM, MONITOR.NLM, XLOAD.EXE, or
      LDR001.PTF with NetWare SFT III 3.11.  These files are for NetWare
      3.11 only.

      Do not use the included MONITOR.NLM with NetWare SFT III 3.11.   Use
      the shipping MONITOR.NLM with NetWare SFT III 3.11.  LAN statistics
      are not part of MONITOR.NLM in SFT III 3.11.

 3.   Copy PM311IO.NLM and LSLENH3.NLM into the directory of each server
      where files loaded from IOSTART.NCF are loaded.

 4.   Add "load lslenh3" to the IOSTART.NCF of each server before the load
      statement for the LAN drivers.  This will automatically load
      PM311IO.NLM.

 5.   Load LSLENH3.NLM then A3112.NLM followed by NBI31x.NLM, MSM31X, and ETHERTSM.NLM
     (see example above) and then load the driver, RLPNPA.LAN in the IOSTART.NCF
      of each server.

 6.   Server is now ready for workstaion connection.
