Workstation for DOS ODI Client Introduction: ------------- This document describes the procedure to setup the NetWare workstation driver for D-Link DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. Location of Driver: \NWCLIENT\DOS\DGE528.COM Sample Configuration Files: --------------------------- STARTNET.BAT: LSL DGE528 IPXODI NETX or VLM NET.CFG: LINK DRIVER DGE528 MEDIUM AUTO --Specify adapter's speed. example --MEDIUM AUTO ;Auto negotiation --MEDIUM 1000FULL ;1000M FullDuplex --MEDIUM 100FULL ;100M FullDuplex --MEDIUM 100HALF ;100M HalfDuple --MEDIUM 10FULL ;10M FullDuplex --MEDIUM 10HALF ;10M HalfDuplex 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 DGE-528T adapter: EtherID NNNNNNNNNNNN --Where NNNNNNNNNNNN specify a DGE-528T adapter's node address.This is only required when more than one DGE-528T 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 = NW5 Setup Procedures for NetWare 3.11/3.12 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 DGE528.COM from the Realtek Driver disk subdirectory, Ex: D:\NWCLIENT\DOS, to your harddisk. 2. Create a batch file, or add to your STARTNET.BAT file the commands listed above under STARTNET.BAT 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 Client with vlm: ----------------------------------------------- The installation utility INSTALL.EXE is located on NetWare's "Workstation for DOS" disk. Run INSTALL.EXE from the Workstation for DOS Disk. The NetWare Client Install program screen will appear. You must complete each of the questions. These options are specific to your needs. 1. Enter the destination directory for the NetWare Client. (The default directory is C:\NWCLIENT). 2. Gives you the option to automatically update the CONFIG.SYS and the AUTOEXEC.BAT files or modify them at a later time manually. 3. Do you wish to install support for MS Windows ? (Y/N) (MS Windows Subdirectory: default C:\WINDOWS) 4. Asks you to select a network driver and provide configuration options. It uses the specifications you select to create the file NET.CFG. Insert the DGE-528T drivers disk when prompted for the driver disk and specify the driver path, Ex: D:\NWCLIENT\DOS. 5. Press to install NOTE: ----- 1. Be sure to add LASTDRIVE=Z to your CONFIG.SYS file for the network mappings to work properly. 2. When you have multiple DGE-528T 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")
