DOS ODI workstations

  NETWARE DOS ODI INSTALLATION NOTES:
  FOR THE INTEL EtherExpress(tm) 16 FAMILY OF NETWORK ADAPTERS
  ============================================================

  This document applies to the EtherExpress(tm) 16, 16TP, 16C, MCA, and
  MCA TP.  It contains notes for installing the DOS ODI driver.
  It does not explain how to configure an EtherExpress board.  For
  instructions about configuring the board, see either the Expert's
  Guide or the Complete Guide for your board.

  This document is also available on FaxBACK.  Document #6310.


  INTRODUCTION:
  -------------
  Before you begin, you will need the I/O address of the EtherExpress
  adapter.  You can get this information by running SOFTSET for the
  EtherExpress 16 or MCADIAGS for the EtherExpress MCA.

  Your server must be running NetWare 2.2 or 3.x or greater to support
  ODI workstations.

  For more information on ODI workstations see Novell's documentation -
  "ODI Shell for DOS".

  For information on the setting up the ODI driver with TCP/IP software
  such as LAN Workplace for DOS, see the TCP/IP readme file.
					
  PROCEDURE:
  ----------
  1. Copy the NETX.COM from the root directory of Novell's WSGEN disk
     to the root directory of the boot disk.

     Copy LSL.COM and IPXODI.COM from the DOSODI directory of Novell's
     WSGEN disk to the root directory of the boot disk.

     Copy EXP16ODI.COM from the NETWARE.ODI directory of the of the
     EtherExpress disk to the boot disk.

     NOTE: For remote boot workstation or NETBIOS see end of document.

  2. Create a CONFIG.SYS file that includes FILES and BUFFERS statements. 
     (Novell recommends a minimum of 20 for each.)

  3. Create a batch file that includes these commands in this order:

     LSL
     EXP16ODI
     IPXODI
     NETX

  4. If the EtherExpress board is configured to use the default I/O
     address (300H), you are done.  Reboot the computer and watch for
     the driver's logon message.

     If the EtherExpress board IS NOT configured for the default I/O
     address, go to the next step.

  5. Create a NET.CFG file on the boot disk.  The NET.CFG should contain
     these statements:

	   Link Driver EXP16ODI
	    Port  xxx

     WHERE xxx is the I/O address for the EtherExpress card.

     IMPORTANT: NET.CFG is case and position sensitive so be careful 
		to use capital letters as shown and indent the second 
		line with one space or one tab.

     The NET.CFG file must be in the same directory as the EtherExpress
     driver and you must be in that directory when you execute EXP16ODI.

     When you finish editing the NET.CFG file, reboot the computer and
     watch for the driver's logon message.

     Example NET.CFG with frame types defined:

	   Link Driver EXP16ODI
	    Port  xxx
	    Frame ETHERNET_802.3
	    Frame ETHERNET_802.2
	    Protocol IPX 0 ETHERNET_802.3
	    Protocol IPX E0 ETHERNET_802.2

	   Protocol IPX
	    Bind EXP16ODI       


  NOTES ON REMOTE BOOT USING THE ODI DRIVER:
  ------------------------------------------
  You will need additional files if you set up a remote boot
  workstation (RPL) or if you are running NETBIOS.  You will find these
  files on Novell's WSGEN diskette, in the DOSODI subdirectory.

    RPLODI.COM    (if the workstation will use Remote boot)
    NETBIOS.EXE   (if your applications require it)
    INT2F.COM     (if you are using NETBIOS.EXE)

  RPL installations are covered in more detail in the NetWare RPL
  readme file.
