This chapter describes how to install a 3C359 NIC network
device driver for various Novell NetWare network operating
system environments.

Before you install a NetWare driver, make sure that the
3C359 NIC is inserted in the PC as described in Chapter 2.

Installing a DOS 16-Bit Client Driver

This section describes installing the DOS 16-bit client driver
using two methods:

■

Automatically, using the 3Com AutoLink software utility

■

Manually, using a NetWare installation utility and

TokenDisk

diskette or CD

Installing a DOS 16-Bit Client Automatically

The 3Com AutoLink software utility automatically
configures one 3C359 NIC and installs the DOS 16-bit ODI
client network driver for NetWare 3.12 and 4.1x systems.
This section describes running the AutoLink program.

AutoLink Software Functions

AutoLink software configures your PC as a NetWare DOS
ODI client. The AutoLink installation utility performs the
following functions:

■

Installs a DOS NetWare Universal Client Virtual Loadable
Module (VLM) from

TokenDisk

diskette #1, or from the

TokenDisk

CD.

The AutoLink installation utility cannot be used to install
multiple 3C359 NICs.

■

Modifies the CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT, and NET.CFG
files. (The previous versions of these files are renamed
CONFIG.3CM, AUTOEXEC.3CM, and NET.3CM.)
