Installing the NetWare Server Driver
If you already have a network connection on your PC,
ask your network administrator how to proceed with the
installation. For existing network connections, some of the
following instructions may not apply or may produce
different results.
Drivers and NetWare Loadable Modules (NLMs) for
NetWare versions 3.12 and 4.1x are located in these
directories on the 3Com diskette:

Use the most recent NLMs available. Compare the versions
that accompanied your NetWare software with the NLM
files on the 3Com diskette, and use the latest versions.
