Server Driver for NetWare 4.01 Introduction: ------------- This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare v3.12 server driver for Genius LAN GE2500III PCI ethernet adapter. Location of Driver: \NETWARE\NW40X\PCISRV.LAN Installation Procedure: ----------------------- Before you start with the installation process, make sure that the Novell NetWare v3.12 server is properly installed. Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your server. 1. These files can be obtained from Genius LAN GE2500III driver disk subdirectory A:\NETWARE\NW40X MSM.NLM ETHERTSM.NLM 2. If you can log into the server as a supervisor , copy PCISRV.LAN relative files from the Genius LAN GE2500III Ethernet Card Driver Diskette subdirectory A:\NETWARE\NW40X into the NetWare 386 subdirectory SYSTEM of your server. (If some files exists, rename the existing files in the SYSTEM subdirectory). 3. When the NetWare server prompt appears (indicated by a colon),load your server driver. Simply type: : UNLOAD ETHERTSM <Enter> : UNLOAD MSM <Enter> : LOAD ETHERTSM <Enter> : LOAD PCISRV <Enter> or, you can directly load file from Genius LAN GE2500III PCI Ethernet Card : : UNLOAD ETHERTSM <Enter> : UNLOAD MSM <Enter> : LOAD A:\NETWARE\NW40X\ETHERTSM <Enter> : LOAD A:\NETWARE\NW40X\PCISRV <Enter> 4. Bind IPX to the adapter driver. At the NetWare server prompt ,type: :BIND IPX TO PCISRV <Enter> 5. After pressing <Enter> the computer prompts you for the Network Number. For details on how to assign this number,please consult your NetWare 386 Installation Manual. 6. Add the load and bind statements you require to the server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file so that the LAN driver will load automatically each time the server starts up. NOTES: ------ 1. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters: The keyword "SLOT" is provided for multiple LAN adapters in a single server by the driver PCISRV.LAN. So, add "SLOT" in LOAD commands. For example: LOAD PCISRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A SLOT=1 BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11 LOAD PCISRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B SLOT=2 BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22 2. Installing One LAN adapter with Multiple Frame Types: When binding multiple frame types to one adapter, enter a LOAD and BIND statement for each frame type. Each LOAD statement will use a different network number is required on the bind statement. You need to supply a name on each load line in order to avoid being prompted for which board to bind IPX to. If you do not have the name option in the AUTOEXEC.NCF , it will not execute completely without user intervention. Example: LOAD PCISRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023 BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111 LOAD PCISRV FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022 BIND IPX TO LAN8022 NET=22222 If problems occur during the binding process, your screen will prompt you with error messages. Please refer to your NetWare 386 manual for details on these messages.
