Novell NetWare OS/2 ODI Client

To install OS/2 ODI client driver, the Novell OS/2 Requester should be used.

Load the NetWare OS/2 ODI client driver from the OS/2 (CONFIG.SYS) file in
the sequence given below. See the Novell NetWare Requester OS/2 Installation
documentation for more information.

After installing the OS/2 Requester, follow the steps listed below:

1       Using the Netware OS/2 disks provided by Novell, install the Netware
        OS/2 Requester files on the client. Follow the instructions displayed
        to configure the Netware OS/2 Requester for a Netware-supported LAN
        adapter card.
        If the Netware-supported LAN adapter card contains the PCnet adapter
        option, select it, otherwise select any other LAN adapter.

2       Insert the NIC2000 NetWare driver diskette into the floppy drive.

3       Copy the OS/2 ODI driver (NIC2000.SYS) from the NIC2000 NetWare
        driver diskette to the C:\NETWARE directory of the boot drive
        using the path:

                A:\NOVELL\OS2ODI\NIC2000.SYS

4       Edit the (CONFIG.SYS) file and replace the Netware-supported LAN
        adapter driver with the name of the NIC2000 OS/2 ODI driver
        (NIC2000.SYS). For example:

                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NIC2000.SYS

        If the Novell OS/2 Requester is used to install the driver, the
        Requester will automatically make modifications to the (CONFIG.SYS)
        file.

        The following is an example of the (CONFIG.SYS) load sequence for
        NetWare 3.12 OS/2 ODI driver support using the IPX protocol stack.

                REM --- Netware Requester Statements BEGIN ---
                SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS
                RUN=C:\NETWARE\DDAEMON.EXE
                REM -- ODI-Driver Files BEGIN --
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NIC2000.SYS
                REM DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\ROUTE.SYS
                REM -- ODI-Driver Files END --
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\IPX.SYS
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\SPX.SYS
                RUN=C:\NETWARE\SPDAEMON.EXE
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\NWREQ.SYS
                IFS=C:\NETWARE\NWIFS.IFS
                RUN=C:\NETWARE\NWDAEMON.EXE
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\VIPX.SYS
                DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\VSHELL.SYS GLOBAL
                REM --- Netware Requester Statements END ---

        The default settings may be modified when the driver loads by creating
        the file (NET.CFG). The AMD OS/2 ODI client driver may also be installed
        to support multiple protocol stacks and Ethernet frame types. Refer to
        Appendix A for sample (NET.CFG) files using the optional keywords. Also,
        refer to the Novell Netware Requester OS/2 Installation documentation
        for more information on configuring the (NET.CFG) file.

5       Reboot the system.

        The installation of the NetWare OS/2 ODI client driver is now complete.
