Parallel Transferring ODI DOS Client Driver

English

Parallel Transferring ODI DOS Client Driver

The Parallel Transferring ODI DOS Client Driver is a high performance,
optimized version of the ODI driver for DOS. It achieves extra
performance by utilizing the LAPP capability of the Enhanced PCI
Ethernet Interface.

It is only recommended to use this driver where extra performance is
essential. Otherwise the standard ODI DOS driver should be used.

It can be used by DOS and Microsoft Windows 3.x computers to gain
access to Novell servers through one of the following:

❒

NetWare DOS Requester (using Virtual Loadable Modules or VLMs)
or

❒

NetWare DOS Shell (using NETX.EXE)

The Parallel Transferring DOS ODI driver is contained within the

NOVELL\LAPPCLNT

directory of your LAN Disk.

To install the Parallel Transferring ODI driver with DOS Requester
(VLM.EXE), refer to page 20.

To install the Parallel Transferring ODI driver with DOS Shell
(NETX.EXE), refer to page 22.

For more information about the NET.CFG file, refer to the Novell
NetWare manuals and “NET.CFG Options for Novell NetWare” on page
24.
