Copy the new AIOMDMS1.MDC, AIOMDMS2.MDC and NLABSMDM.MDC onto all servers and workstations. 3. For NetWare Connect Servers, do the following: a) Do an NWCSTOP. b) Down the server, or manually unload the AIO driver(s). c) Restart the server, and/or reload the AIO driver(s). d) Do an NWCSTART. The new modems will now appear as choices. 4. On the workstations, restart the Dialer in order for the new scripts to be available. NOTE: Many of these modem scripts have not been tested by Novell. In addition, many modem manufacturers change/update firmware without changing model name. If you experience problems with a script, read TSHOOT.TXT for some helpful tips. If you have a MWave modem, please read MWAVE.TXT. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Any trademarks referenced in this document are the property of their respective owners.
