NSTALLATION
You should know how to use the Novell installation
program and have the network information, such as
protocols, required for installation. If you need help with
network information, see your system administrator.
The NetWare server software must be already installed but
not yet running.
NetWare 3.12
Install the LANDR9.EXE and 312PTA.EXE patches from
Novell. These patches upgrade the server to ODI 3.3
specifications. Then follow these steps to install the driver:
1 Insert the 3Com diskette in the drive and copy all of
the files from the \NWSERVER\3.12 directory on the
diskette to the server hard disk.
2 At the DOS prompt, enter this command to start the
server software:
server
3 At the console prompt, enter:
load install
4 Select the option to edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
Add lines to the file to load the driver and bind a protocol.
For example, if C:\SERVER is the directory where you copied
files in step
1
and the protocol is IPX, add these lines:
load c:\server\tif.lan
bind ipx tif net = number
where
number
is the unique IPX internal network number
assigned to the network.
5 Save the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
6 Exit to DOS and restart the server.
NetWare 4.1x
