** - IMPORTANT 
     =========
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Recommended you run RLASET configuration utility first before you
    proceed with installation of LAN adapter driver described below.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


 1) NetWare Lite v1.x environment
    ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ

     a) Follow the standard installation procedure detailed in
        your NetWare Lite manual.

     b) When prompted to select the "Network Interface Card
        Name," select the option "*OTHER CARDS."

     c) Insert the driver diskette, and press <ESCAPE>.

     d) Select RLPNPA.COM from the menu.

     e) Re-insert the NetWare Lite Install diskette and
        complete the installation.


 2) NetWare v3.1x environment
    ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ

     a) Make a directory in your hard disk, e.g. C:\NWCLIENT. Copy
        the DOS ODI workstation files into this directory.

     b) Copy all the files in A:\DOSODI the distribution diskette into 
        this directory.

     C) To connect and login to the server, run
          RLA.BAT

        To manually load the driver, run
          LSL
          RLPNPA
          IPXODI
          NETX


 3) NetWare v4.x environment
    ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ

     Auto installation
     -----------------
     In a NetWare v4.xx environment, you may execute the NetWare
     v4.xx Client INSTALL.EXE utility to install the DOS
     Requester and generate the NET.CFG and CONFIG.SYS. 

     The INSTALL.EXE utility makes use of the INS file,
     RLPNPA.INS, to prompt for configuration parameters that will
     be copied into the NET.CFG.  

     Manual installation
     -------------------
     You may also manually execute the following steps:

     a) Make a directory in your hard disk, e.g. C:\NWCLIENT. Copy
        the DOS Requester files into this directory.

     b) Copy the DOS ODI driver and the NET.CFG file from the
        driver diskette into this directory.

     c) When the installation is complete, your NET.CFG file may look like
        this:
          
          LINK DRIVER RLPNPA
               
          NetWare DOS Requester
               First Network Drive = F


     d) Before you can login to the network, check that your CONFIG.SYS
        file contains the statement LASTDRIVE=Z and your AUTOEXEC.BAT have
        the SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH and @CALL STARTNET added.
	This is normally added by the installation software. 
        But if your Config.sys file runs multiple menu, the file may not be 
        updated and you may have to manually add them.  


     e) Reboot your workstation.

³ STANDARD KEYWORDS SUPPORTED IN NET.CFG FILE ³
ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ
 Keywords supported in the NET.CFG file are:

  * - indicate the card factory setting.

  1. PORT

     Valid PORT addresses are:
     220h, 240h, 260h, *280h, 2A0h, 2C0h, 2E0h,
     300h, 320h, 340h, 360h, 380h, 3A0h, 3C0h, 3E0h

     Generally, it is not necessary to add the PORT keyword
     The driver automatically reads the I/O base address from 
     the network adapter.
     
     However, by specifying this keyword in the NET.CFG, you can
     CHANGE the PORT address of your network adapter regardless
     of the original setting. For example to change the I/O
     base address to 2C0h, simply write:
     
     LINK DRIVER RLPNPA
          PORT 2C0
        

  2. INT

     Valid INT values are:
     3, 4, 5, 9, *10, 11, 12 and 15.

     Generally, it is not necessary to add the INT keyword.
     The driver automatically reads the hardware interrupt
     number from the network adapter.
     
     However, by specifying this keyword in the NET.CFG, you can
     CHANGE the interrupt level of your network adapter regardless 
     of the original setting. For example to change the hardware 
     interrupt to 15, write:

     LINK DRIVER RLPNPA
          INT 15


  3. FRAME
   
     This keyword lets you change the frame type to match that used by the
     server so as to get a successful connection.
   
     For example, to use frame type Ethernet_802.2 just enter as shown below,

        LINK DRIVER RLPNPA
             FRAME Ethernet_802.2
  
     The valid frame types supported are:
       * Ethernet_802.2
         Ethernet_802.3
         Ethenret_II
         Ethernet_Snap

 Additional keyword is supported by the DOS ODI driver:-

  1. BOARD

     Valid BOARD numbers are : 1 - 4

     This keyword is used to specify which board to initialize
     if there are multiple boards installed in the system.
     If the board number is not specified and you have more than one
     adapters installed, you will be prompt to chose one of the boards.
          
     For example, you may add the following lines to the NET.CFG file:
     
     LINK DRIVER RLPNPA
          BOARD 2
