Workstation for DOS ODI Client

Introduction:
-------------
This document describes the procedure to setup the NetWare v3.X, v4.X,
5.0 workstation driver for D-Link DFE-528TX 10/100 Adapter.

Location of Driver:     \NWCLIENT\DFE528.COM

Sample Configuration Files:
---------------------------
STARTNET.BAT:
    LSL
    DFE528
    IPXODI
    NETX or VLM (VLM's for NetWare 4.x, 5.0)

NET.CFG:
    LINK DRIVER DFE528

      MEDIUM MM  --where MM is one of AUTO, 10HALF, 10FULL, 100HALF,
                   and 100FULL, to specifiy the media type.

      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.

     [ or you can use "EtherID" to select a specific DFE-528TX adapter:
      EtherID 006067NNNNNN --Where 006067NNNNNN specify a DFE-528TX
                             adapter's node address. This is only
                             required when more than one DFE-528TX
                             adapters exist on one system.
     ]


      FRAME Ethernet_802.2 --Specify frame type
      FRAME Ethernet_802.3
      FRAME Ethernet_SNAP
      FRAME Ethernet_II

    NetWare DOS Requester
      FIRST NETWORK DRIVE = F
      NETWARE PROTOCOL = NDS BIND
      PREFERRED SERVER = NW411


Setup Procedures for NetWare 3.12 Client :
------------------------------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the  adapter is properly installed and configured. Make sure
that your NetWare workstation is properly installed.

1. Copy DFE528.COM from the DFE-528TX Driver Disk subdirectory
   \NWCLIENT to your harddisk.

2. Update STARTNET.BAT batch file as sample above

3. Edit the NET.CFG file that you copied over. Edit the file per your
   requirements (see examples above). If there are two frame types
   listed, whichever frame type is listed first, that is the one that
   the  driver will load. See above for examples. The NET.CFG file
   should be in the same directory with the LSL.COM file.


Setup Procedures for NetWare 4.X, 5.0 Client with vlm:
-------------------------------------------------------
1. Make a new directory NWCLIENT(or other name) on C drive

2. Copy \NWCLIENT\*.* to C:\NWCLIENT\*.*

3. Create STARTNET.BAT batch file as sample above

4. Add a line "@CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT"(ingore symbol "")
   on the first line of AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
      

NOTE:
-----
1. Be sure LASTDRIVE=Z in your CONFIG.SYS file for the
   network mappings to work properly.

2. When you have multiple DFE-528TX Adapters on your system:
   Use "BUSNO" and "DEVICENO" KEYWORD in NET.CFG to select which
   adapter to use with your netware client.(or you can use "EtherID")


                                                                      -- End --
