Novell Netware
The driver is a 32-bit ODI HSM Novell NetWare server driver for the DGE-550SX
network adapter. It supports both Netware 5.10 and Netware 6.x. In addition to the
32-bit server driver, a Novell ODI 16-bit DOS client MLID driver is available for the
latest Novell NetWare VLM Client.
NOTE:
To perform the installation, you must have access to the server console.
NOTE:
The setting for Minimum Packet Receive Buffers in the startup.ncf must be
increased to at least 120 per network adapter (e.g. for three network adapters you
should add Set Minimum Packet Receive Buffers = 360 to startup.ncf). On SMP
Systems (Symmetric Multi Processing Systems), you may have to multiply this
number with the number of active processors.
